The first photo shows the subject is evenly lit. The next three are common mistakes that are made. The second photo has a light source behind the subject, which makes the subject too dark. The third photo shows a bright and harsh light, which creates shadows on the subject. Lastly, the fourth photo shows a lack of sufficient light, which causes the subject is too dark.
![There are 4 photo options showing optimal lighting, and also 3 common mistakes; over exposure, under exposure and backlit.](/sites/default/files/health-and-human-development/communications-and-marketing/training/health-and-human-development-training-lighting-source-photo-examples.png)

The first photo shows optimal framing. The next four are common mistakes that are made such as; cutting off the subject, too close to the edge of the frame, odd angles, and having too much foreground.
