Your favorite studio light setup for glamour

[danielyamseng]

What's your favorite studio light setup for glamour shooting?

Do you just use 2 lights or 5 lights?

If you ever use 5 lights what's your favorite setting?

What's your favorite modifier?

There's some arrangement i.e hair light that would restrict the model movement i.e the best if the model just sit on the stool but not for fashion like posing where they'll actively changing their positions.

modifier for me is the 53" octo. 2 light setup, with main at 45, and fill. Maybe 3 lights if I want a hairlight or kicker.

This is like asking what my favorite movie is. There are a million variations and a lot of it depends on my mood, the look I want, my location, the model I am working with, etc.

Sometimes just one light. Sometimes four lights, depends on what I am going for and what kind of room I have to shoot. The possibilities are endless. :)

Most used is a 3 light setup. Alienbee B800 with large octabox in front, camera right. Two B400s with 20 degree grids on each side and behind the model. Also use a 5 light setup from time to time. I add a B800 with a medium octabox in front camera left and a B400 with the AB's beauty dish on a boom over the model.

Yes I know there's variation but still like a movies, I'm pretty sure there'd be your favorite one :-)
