Photography Induction Part 2 - Lighting

On monday we had our second photography Induction which was about lighting. This was something I was really looking forward to as it is the most important part of photography in my eyes to get the best results in your work and lighting was something I have never been taught. We were using Tuscan lights  with about 4 different setups. The first was 2 lights with a soft box on each using the black wall as a background. Their was also a light box which you could light from either above or underneath. A black backdrop with two lights and also a white backdrop which had a light from above with a large soft box on. Here are 3 images that were taken using the lighting setups.
