I’m trying to add a little accent light to my background to improve the separation between the background and the model. I tried using the render spotlight tool which added the light where I wanted it but it turned the rest of the background black. Is there a way to add light to the areas of the layer without changeing the rest of the layer?

You should be able to do this by using a layer mask.
