Setup studio lights

Lighting method 1:
You need a black background (preferably non-reflective pure black felt).
2 softbox lights (the light intensity of each light does not need to be discussed at this time).


The front lamp 1 is tilted 45 degrees to the left (left and right, depending on the arrangement of the sample)
Light 2 on the back of the model is sloping to the right of you - # opposite to lamp 1 and higher than lamp 1 (higher purpose is for the horizontal blocks of the model, shoulders, head, and chest thickness (!) To be called. is the horizontal block.

Note that with light 1, you can create a dark and bright block on the sides of the sample because you move the lamp position so that your image is not taken with a uniform light, the result of the light will flatten the image and lack space depth due to block loss.

Lighting method 2:
As well as a way to take a picture that is wider than the model (bust) or full body
The position of light 1 as above, you pull back further, but at this point you should pay attention to the light intensity to increase the light intensity a little or widen the aperture or increase the ISO, etc.

Maybe you should learn more: product photography

This is a way to arrange high lights to show the hairline light.

And the result is :
Lighting method 3:
You want your model's hair to have a back light, which is the familiar word called peri or vein light, etc.
Lamp 1 and lamp 2 are placed in front of the model at an angle of 45 degrees
Lamp 3: placed high behind the sample, about 50 cm from the top of the sample
Light 3 is not in sofbox, but uses barn doors. you have to use a special-purpose grid with many holes called nests
ng (honeycomb)

Light arrangement 4:
And this option 4 helps you to make a good commercial service for breakfast
You put lamp 1 with a large softbox directly facing the sample face
Light 2 is placed lower under lamp 1 and upwards - Its effect is to deal with shadows of small horizontal blocks on the patterned face such as the nasal cavity, the eyelids, the thickness of the midpoint of the lower lip, the cheek etc….

Wish you success and hope that if you know more ways, please add for everyone to refer as well as the author to learn more.
