This lesson shows a very effective method for shooting a full-length fashion shot in the studio using strobe lights and large soft boxes. This shot was lit with a 5-foot OctoDome3 and strobe as the main light, a large LiteDome and strobe as the fill light, and a focusable continuous light as a background light.

topics covered

  • One light with a bounce fill
  • Basic two light solutions
  • Using Dome accessories
  • Spot lighting the background
  • Manipulating strobe and continuous lighting simultaneously
