Yesterday, I wrote about the set up of the photobooth at last weekEating Contest. Here you can see the rough set up. The camera is abutted up to the soft box, which itself it right next to a hedge. The shoot-through umbrella is peaking in at the right, it’s angled in wide and doesn’t provide any catchlights. You can also see the red 25lbs sandbag on the tripod.
I could have raised the softbox a hair and I should have raised the shoot-through umbrella quite a bit to be shooting down to provide a better hair light and it would have lessened the harsh shadows behind the subjects.
