Recce.

We have been shooting in a studio in Kent College Canterbury. 

A photo studio has to have special lighting equipment which helps to control shadows and light on the pictures.

When you set up three different sources of light in order to control shadows and balance the contrast is called three point lighting technique.  This technique is used in visual media such as video, film, still photography and computer-generated imaginary. 

Three point lighting consists of the key light, fill light and back light. You can see on the pictures below how the lighting equipment should be set.
