super cool. Actually, it just reminded me of using this in a practice at college for product photograph. Your result is fantastic. That's why I like photography that much

Lol, glad you said the part about the 5' octa, as I was about to try that. I do have two strip boxes though, so I think I'll give that a try. Really great, informative vid. Thanks!

@JohnGress Жыл бұрын

Thanks Wayne! You could pair the 5' octa with a 20x30 piece of foam core and shoot a headshot too.

This comment came before the 3:00 mark. I’ve already taken great value from this video and plan to try this setup during my next shoot. I’m going to have to do a workshop next time you’re in central Florida.

Thank you!! Great video for my self portraiture!! I am muscular man and want to capture my body at this time. I will work on this style of shoot, because I love the enhancement of the rim light creates! I am an older muscular male. Any ideas on poses to show of my body would be so much appreciated John:)

Can we do it with single light with 65cm softbox??

@JohnGress 2 ай бұрын

No, because a 65cmm softbox is smaller than the black background width.
