High-Key Photography: High key photography is a modern lighting technique that is based on using mid-tone greys through to bright whites. The use of bright lights and lighting to eliminate shadow reduced the contrasts in the picture.
Key-Light: the main light used.
Beauty Dish: a circular dish which comes in white or silver - if white is used inside, it is more diffused. If silver is used, the light is more directional.
Diffusion Sock: a cover added to the beauty dish to diffuse the light further.
Honeycomb Grid: placed over the light in order to control/restrict the spread of the light.
Colour-Gel: a toned gel which is placed over a light to alter the colour.
Fill Light: a light which fills in shadows.
Back Light/Clip Light: adds direct light behind the model to create a silhouette.
Diffusion Filter: a lens added to the camera to diffuse the actual image.
