How to use 2-light setup for someone with glasses?

<p>I understand that with just using one light I can have the subject tilt his glasses away from the "family of angles" that reflect the light. However, I need to add fill light, and since I'm shooting in an office, I can't rely on a small 5-in-1 reflector since I have no assistant or stand to hold it. <br /> <br />So the question remains, how do I add fill to the shadow side of his face without causing glare in his glasses if he's already slightly turned away from the main light? Assume the sitter will not take off his glasses or the lenses in them.</p>

<p>One little trick I've used for years is to carry a small eyeglass screwdriver and carefully unscrew the lenses and remove them. Place them safely so you can tell right from left when you put them back in.</p>

<p>Done it many times and never had an issue with it...</p>
