stage photo

While stage photography may seem simple to the naked eye, the lighting and constant movements that must be continuously mapped are akin to jumping on a trampoline while balancing on an operating jackhammer and snapping pictures.
There’s no point having great actors if the audience can’t see expressions clearly, so for play lighting ensure light is directed from the audiences’ viewpoint. This is known as 'front lighting' and is the best way to showcase facial movements.
