Photo ID Card

This assignment will be completed in the Studio using 1-2 lights, a diffuser and a deflector.
While we will go over some standard lighting set-up, feel free to experiment with your lighting quality (hard vs soft), distances and set-ups. Also, please consider a wardrobe change, an expression to match the situation or background change to change the overall feel of your photographs.
