Harlowe Portrait Lighting: Sculpt with Light, Shape Your Vision
You see the perfect portrait in your mind: soft, wrapping light, a captivating catchlight in the eyes, and beautiful separation from the background. But turning that idea into reality often becomes a struggle against harsh shadows, inaccurate skin tones, and cumbersome equipment.
Mediocre light produces mediocre work. It flattens features, kills mood, and silences your creative voice. You are an artist, not just a technician. You need tools that are an extension of your creativity, not an obstacle in your path.

Master the Language of Light
Butterfly Lighting
How-to: For the classic "butterfly" shadow under the nose, place your Harlowe light slightly above and directly in front of your subject, angled down. This is a go-to for beauty and glamour portraits.
Recommended Gear: Harlowe Max 80W Kit or the Harlowe Avant 100W Kit with a compatible softbox.
Rembrandt Lighting
How-to: For a more dramatic look, move your light further to the side until the shadow of the nose connects with the shadow on the cheek, leaving a triangle of light. This adds mood and dimension.
Recommended Gear: Harlowe Pro 300W Kit with a Softbox, or the Harlowe Avant 100W with Optical Lens.
