Rim light——Comes in at an acute angle and create highlights along the edge. Ambient light——Non-direct soft light and often bounced from one surface to another. Soft/Diffuse light——Reduce contrast and minimizes shadow. Hard light——Direct light and often increase brightness and create strong shadow. Spotlight——particular light always with highlight spot. Artificial light——Works with studio flash units.
