LUKE COPPING’S PORTRAIT titled “Marie” uses a softbox high up to camera left triggered by a PC/sync cord. Luke lights the background with a strobe triggered via an optical slave. A silver reflector at the model’s feet completes the package by reflecting the light from the softbox back up to add dimension to the model’s jawline. Sometimes a little bounce can add the perfect touch. Plus, reflectors never run out of batteries.
