The set up for Opal’s shoot. This was done on the fly so I went with my favourite and simplest high key set up. Two SB-800′s as the background lights (flagged to prevent flares) and a SB-900 in a softbox as the main. This is also the first time I am using this new softbox in a studio setting, I love the catch light it produces oppose to an umbrella.

The ability to control spill through a softbox is also that much better. This was especially apparent when I wasn’t blowing out the white background. Unfortunately my garage is not long enough for me to get enough space between Opal and the background to test out how dark I can make the white backdrop.
