Field notes
Each style entry pairs reference imagery with an explanation of light placement and a shoot sheet; the homepage samples six styles, while the index is described as containing 43, spanning daguerreotype portraiture to Y2K digicam. Its light lab lets visitors move a softbox around a clay head to compare butterfly, loop, Rembrandt, and split lighting; the pictured demonstrations are Blender Cycles renders, not photographs of people.
