This shot of my husband inspired by the Dutch Masters took three days to create. On the first day I set up and tested my lighting. On the second day we shot, but I was unhappy with the results, so we went back to the studio on day 3. This was the final result lit with a beauty dish camera right with a foam core flag to create the narrowed light area on the face and a background light behind.

Frans Hals, eat your heart out! Good job, Emily.
This type of lighting is all about good light composition skills. And yours are really superb!!!
Thank you! You're very kind.
