Light and dark are the two most fundamental elements of photography. Light is used to create your subject and dark is used for contrast. Understanding this relationship between light and dark will empower you to understand your anatomy more effectively as well as be able to create better restorations.
When taking pictures, do you find that some of your pictures turn out yellow? You may have been using a flash, but realize that direction of the light can have a big effect on how your subject looks in the photo.

Leave it in the comments what flash set up do you use?
