I could have also used a separation or rim light, but chose not to. The added bonus of a white background is it also acts as a reflector.Īlternatively, if none of your light hits the backdrop, it can become quite dark. I had a 36-inch octobox as my main light and a 16-inch beauty dish for my fill light. I love these as they run on batteries, so there are no cords. I used a two-light setup using two Godox Wistro 400 Pro. You can, however, get them in different sizes for your needs. I have a dark charcoal paper backdrop, too (not featured here). It gives a lovely crispness to your images and makes your subject stand out.
KEEP IT SIMPLE IMAGES INSTALL
It’s easy to install and use and is wrinkle-free, but be careful with heels, as it can be easily damaged. I used a simple white seamless paper background. I have two cameras so I had a lens on each camera and just switched between the two. In this studio session I pretty much shot with two lenses Tamron 28-200mm telephoto zoom lens (yes, a zoom lens) and my Sony 85mm f/1.4. It doesn’t mean these aren’t gorgeous portraits, just simple and allowing your subject to shine. Sometimes they just want simple, classy portraits that can be used for business, social media, personal branding and more. The costumes, the hair and makeup, the props and accessories, the staging … I adore it. I adore doing totally over the top creative portraits they are loads of fun.
But sometimes paring it all back and going for classy, yet simple portraits is its own reward. I know - I do it all the time, just for the fun of it. There is a temptation to go overboard on portraits.
