Term: Fill Flash
Description: Fill flash in photography is a technique that uses flash to brighten the shadows on the subject. The technique is most commonly used in portrait photography to fill in the shadows under the subject's eyes. Fill flash can be done with either on camera or off camera flash with a flash power that does not overexpose the subject or overpower the key light in the scene.
