lighting scenario three
Lighting doesn’t have to be complicated to yield polished results. With the right tools and techniques, you can do a lot with a little. The fashion group shot above was pro- duced using one light: a Profoto 2400ws ProHead Strobe powered by a 7a generator, and one modifier, the Mola Sollo beauty dish. Here, distance is key. I’ve positioned the key light far enough away from the models to provide cov- erage for the group. This also increases contrast and the “hardness” of the light.
Here, you see what’s possible with just one light, the right modifier, and a little knowhow. Note the specular quality of the light and the white background. This was produced without the need for a separate lighting zone dedicated for the background. The silver interior of the Mola Sollo makes it a very efficient source that’s able to deliver a lot of directional light. By placing the models rela- tively close to the background, and using this modifier, I’m able to light them both at the same time. n
