Thank You!

Very nice! Lighting Ratio?

Hi there and thank you!
- Main light Beauty Dish with white reflector under the chin of a model to soften the shadows
- 2 rim light, one light with snoot modifier for background

Great shot. I see your lighting setup, but what was the lighting ratio? I'm interested in the ratio between the BD and the rim lights.

Hi, Mike. While I do not speak for Milenko, I can touch on your ratio question. The lighting ratio is not that important unless you know the the size and distance of the rim lights. If he had said, "3:1", what would you learn? Testing and experimenting is the only way to configure your own version, in your own "studio." I hope that makes sense. Cheers!

Awesome shot, love the lighting, looks like a smart Lee Morris lol!!
