By controlling the artificial lighting and framing key views, a model may be photographed to produce an array of exciting and atmospheric images.

The dramatic spatial effects communicated in this image were achieved using a comparatively simple model, but carefully arranging the lighting and position of the camera.

One significant application of photography is its ability to produce large images of what may be a comparatively small model. Models are usually seen from below eye level, and the use of photography enables the modelmaker to orchestrate how a model is seen and may enhance the perception of it. Through the production of large-format images the model is translated into something more visually ‘realistic’, as issues of scale and miniaturization are rendered less problematic. Further information can then be added to the image – either by hand or via computer techniques, such as collage and montage – enriching the composition as desired. Early model photography encountered significant problems when it attempted to overcome depth-of-field issues in model images, but this has since been resolved through technical developments in the medium.
