http://SmokingStrobes.com - In this video you will learn about a very flexible portrait lighting setup. You can use in a photo studio or on location. It works with a bright background as well as weith a dark background. For this lighting setup you only need some speedlights and shoot through umbrellas. This lighting setup produces classic beauty portraits like you need for magazines and for skin care advertisements. By balancing the light left and right you can choose how much you want the features of your model stand out or being flattened by even, frontal light. This is one of my favorite lighting setups. Let me know below the video what you think about it.

I wish you good light!
