unity ui elements are not per default affected by light. you can however assign a material to certain ui components via the inspector (such as "Image")

note: i´m not per se sure if lights will affect canvases that are set to "screenSpaceOverlay" mode so i´d say you need the canvas either in screenSpaceCamera or worldSpace mode
