Rembrandt Lighting:
What: The reflection of light used in portraits to make part of the picture appear darker, and a "triangle" of light on the shadowed side of the face often appears.
How: The light source is off to the side of the camera and object, and is reflected to make the picture look partially lighter and partially darker.
Why: Its easy to use and set up, and can make for some dramatic and interesting portraits.
