May 16 09 05:56 pm Link bumpity bump bump May 18 09 11:19 pm Link bump! May 20 09 07:54 pm Link I want to keep this thread alive, thank you to everyone who has contributed so far. It has been very helpful as my studio is only an 11 x 20 ! I am working on expanding it but money talks! Any diagrams for an 11 x 20!! please post and I will show you some of the work! Thanks again May 22 09 02:16 pm Link Don't have access to a diagram at this time, so here's a pic of the setup. One 48" softbox - camera left. One 3x6 white reflector - camera right. One 9" reflector with blue gel lighting up the black colored backdrop, hidden by the reflector. Reflector is also blocking some of the blue colored light to keep it from spilling onto the scooter. Also put the escort to work pulling fan duty. May 22 09 07:46 pm Link Roadtrip Photography wrote: awesome set up. Did you have a back/hair light some where? I was trying to find it in the pic or was it just the light from the reflector? great shot. May 26 09 11:06 am Link I dont know about you guys, but I cannot see any of the photos when I click on links or if I copy and paste them.

Jun 05 09 07:00 am Link Does anyone feel like creating a PDF for pages 26 onwards for us newcomers who cannot see the images?? Thanks! Jun 11 09 12:01 pm Link I second that some pdf updates would be wonderful! Jun 11 09 06:00 pm Link Ken Norcross wrote: Nice! , very simple and does a great job. Thank!! Jun 11 09 06:19 pm Link 1)Printed background image. Used for pixel consistancy and replace by the original image in Photoshop. 2)Two SLS3200 lights at 45° to the background to provide illumination. 3)Hair light with turquoise gell. The hair light must be the colour that you will finally make the background. 4)Polyboards to stop the background lights causing flare. Polyboards are sheets of polystyrene usually painted white on one side or black on the other but can also be a combination of colours. 5)Nikon SB-900 Speedlight with softbox acting as a clip light. 6)SLS Strobe on a boom providing fill from above the models head. 7)Nikon SB-900 Speedlight acting as fill and adding specular highlights. 8)Large Octobox with Bowens 750 DX pro mono light acting as key light. 9)Nikon SB-900 with softbox below model acting as fill light. 10)Row of wooden boxes simulation the wall she is standing on.

Jun 14 09 12:43 pm Link Can anyone post some detailed outdoor beach setups? Jun 16 09 03:36 am Link I have commitments for the next few days but have bookmarked this post. I will try to post some diagrams using cheap lighting (off camera flashes, cheap slaves, etc) bfore the end of the week. One of the most active and better posts I have seen on MM. To me, sharing this valuable information is what these forums should be about. Whether you are a beginner or very experienced we can always learn from each other's contributions to such a topic. Well done contributors. Jun 16 09 05:44 am Link Apfel Photography wrote: This is Great!!! Anymore wedding setups like this? Jun 16 09 07:16 am Link .

Jul 12 09 10:53 pm Link Jul 13 09 06:51 am Link Jul 13 09 04:52 pm Link Nothing terribly impressive by any stretch of the imagination but never hurts to share. 2 gridded Elinchrom Rx400 strobes on either side of the model, slightly pushed back and elevated Medium softbox on a Elinchrom Bx600 used for fill.
