    Not the same old thang!

    I recently read an awesome blog post done with a beauty dish, a giant soft box for fill, and a ring light. This was some edgy lighting used to light corporate men and women no less! To me that's just awe-inspiring! I pretty much stick to the classic Rembrandt lighting technique when shooting such people.... Not the same old thang again…. « Nakean Photography

    Not very flattering to your subjet. JMHO

    I have to agree with the above, that is NOT a flattering lighting arrangement and it's most definitely not Rembandt lighting. It would work well enough for corporate headshots if you dialled back your key and fill and added some additional diffusers.

    The hot spots are very distracting.
    Jerry was a race car driver, he'd say "Hells, I'm number one"
    With a Bocephus sticker on his 442, he'd light 'em up just for fun...
