Silhouette Photography Ideas and Examples

Silhouette photography is an excellent method to portray drama, mystery, passion, and mood in an image. A silhouette is a view of an item or scene that consists of the outline and an empty interior, with both the silhouetted object often being black. These images frequently lack a clear narrative and leave a portion of the image to the viewer’s imagination.

The key to photographing a silhouette is to choose a strong subject with a defined and recognizable shape; turn off your flash to cast as little light as possible on the front of your subject; balance the light by having more light shining from the backdrop than the foreground; frame your picture so that the sharpest light source is behind your subject, and ensure the silhouette shape is accurate. The examples given of silhouette photography are absolutely remarkable. Each image has a link to the photographer’s website. Please feel free to peruse their other work. Take pleasure and be inspired.
