Hey everybody!
I'm back with a new huge question. I'm always wondering what light/flashes professional fashion photographers use and how they position it. Of course I know that there has to be some or a lot of post production in photoshop but I'm sure that the original pictures are already well lightened etc.
I have here some examples by three well known fashion photographers that achieve the look and lighting of the photo I'm interested in.
It would be really great if you could tell me something about the detailed process of such a shooting and especially, if you can guess by looking at the pictures, what lighting setup they are using for each photo series here.
Sketches or photos similar setups would be cool, too, if available. If you also know more on the post production of those photos, I would be happy if you could let me know what techniques are used there basically.

The thing I noticed on those photos is that you can still see the "texture" of the models' skin like on the 5th photo. I like that and it shows me that no huge post production has been made in photoshop. So it's just all up to the light in the studio.

I found a behind the scenes video in which you can often see that they are using a light from the top right with a (broncolor?) softbox, what flash is that exactly? I don't see that he is using more than one light for a photo, is that true? what do you think? VIDEO: Esquire Katy Perry by Yu Tsai on Vimeo

Also, if you know more about the make up that maybe has to be used, please tell me. I don't know much about basic make up techniques that should be applied on the model at least for the shots above.
Thank you very much in advance! I hope I don't ask too much...
