Lighting Diagram #1
I get a lot of questions regarding lighting. So starting now I’m going to go post 1 image with lighting diagram a week. :)
The image below was shot with a Mamiya 645 with a Leaf Aptus 75 digital back. 50mm lens. Two Profoto strobes and two softboxes.
This lighting set up is actually shockingly simple, as is 90% of the lighting I do. The key to it is quality of light (soft, hard, etc.) and understanding how your to find the sweet spots in your light modifiers.
With this shot you need to allow enough light to bleed over onto the backwall to give it that vignette effect you see. Both lights are at the exact same power (as low as power setting as possible).
Hope this helps :)
