Portrait lighting

[mike3767]

Going to start taking portraits for my real estate company and need to know what kind of studio light I need. I will be getting the Digi Bee which includes 2 B400 watt strobes, 2 10ft. stands for the lights, 2 umbrellas. I have a 430 ex and 2 continuos lights with white umbrellas. If I set my alien bees on the left and right side of the model head high, could I use one of my continuos lights to light the back side of my subject? So this means I have one light left. I'd like to use it to light the hair and not sure how to do that. Do I need to make a snoot to shine directly onto her head, if so, do I hang it high and shoot straight down onto her head? If I'm completely off, please slap me then proceed to tell me the correct way. A BIG thanks in advance.

If you go to the link below you can see how I set up my studio lighting, it sounds like something that will help you. I show softbox lighting but it is the same with umbrellas. Good Luck
