    My first attempt at studio lighting photography. Single strobe with Godox XL softbox umbrella.
    CC welcome!


    • depends on what you want. if you move the light closer to her the background will turn darker.pango
    • i personally prefer if you have a white bounce reflector on the left of her so the shadows aren't so hard.pango
    • You need some fill on the right, white card or a reflector. You could also try a bigger soft box which will wrap the light around more and give a softer edge..RumperChunk
    • Nice job tho for first crack ;)RumperChunk
    • thank you. I will try a reflector before adding a second light. I'd like to try and somewhat master the single light setup first.HijoDMaite
    • Nothing wrong with it. Both eyes are lit. It's all preferencepango
    • Fill is nice. Reduce shadow and gives her left side a bit of outline. You can use 2nd light with same logic.pango
    • You can also move the light further away from her. This will make background more lit. Creating out line for her left side again.pango
    • i'm sorry, you won't love it:
