Its just that one statement.. All i did was think about it and every time i take a picture.. i dont look only at the subject, look at the lighting on the subject. the light can be a subject all of its own inside a picture.

i did look up some super basic stuff (Photoshelters "School of Stock") which just gave mme a rough idea of backlighting using reflectors. so I made some, and experimented with reflecting natural light.
.

pretty simple i think. .. i hope this makes sense..

dont lok at the person you're photographing.. look at the light wrapped around them
