Catchlights

The eye is arguably the most important part of any portrait. As the saying goes, eyes are the windows to our souls and can express emotion, project feelings which are otherwise hidden, and give an insight into somebody’s character. Catchlights are the spots of reflected light visible in the subject’s eyes in a portrait photograph. Well sized and positioned catchlights can bring a picture to life and add intrigue and depth to the image.
