Easy 2 & 3 light portrait setups...

These are images recently taken for a model portfolio and were shot using just 2 and 3 SB-800s, each flash was set to manual and all fired with Pocket Wizards.

Click on any of the images to view larger and in a new window.

These first images were done with two Nikon SB-800's. The primary/key light was bare bulb with a snoot on it and the fill light had on a LiteDome xs.





The next group of images were done with three Nikon SB-800's. We used a LiteDome xs on each of the primary (front) lights, the rear hair light had a snoot on it and even at it's lowest setting the light was still a bit hot so we stuffed the snoot with a little cheese cloth.
