1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
identifying:
a physical camera configured to capture an image of a physical subject for insertion into an artificial reality scene;
a physical light source that is positioned to light the physical subject being recorded by the physical camera; and
lighting conditions in the artificial reality scene;
determining:
a location within the artificial reality scene of a virtual object that corresponds to the physical subject and uses the image of the physical subject as at least part of an appearance of the virtual object; and
a lighting condition at the location within the artificial reality scene; and
configuring the physical light source to light the physical subject such that lighting conditions of the physical subject cause the image of the physical subject to blend visually with the lighting condition of the location within in the artificial reality scene.
