Ring lights have been used for distinctive photos for a long time, but in the past couple of years – thanks to the pandemic and endless video meetings – they’ve become increasingly popular.
A ring light eliminates shadows, resulting in simple, flattering lighting over a face. The 360 degrees of illumination helps to give skin a flawless look, it fills out bags under eyes and reduces wrinkles. As such it’s a popular choice, not only for Zoom meetings but also among YouTube vloggers and for fashion photography.
