<p>Thanks so much!<br> I had an idea after I posted this that maybe a strip soft box off camera axis as fill would be better and I think that's a similar idea what you are describing Rodeo Joe. As she does have a heap of light on the face. <br> The shoot with a real mode (and client) is tomorrow so I will definitely be pulling out the clamshell set up. <br> And I got myself some plywood!<br> Thanks again! </p>

<p>Hi there, </p> <p>A new client of mine gave me this website as a reference for some shots I am working on... So I tested some shots in studio. I'm happy with the lighting. I used an octa as main light and then a bigger octa for fill. <br> BUT I think they will be bothered by the shadow on the floor. I didn't have heaps of studio time and I wonder if any of you guys can give me any advice? I won't have long to sort it out so somewhere to start would be good! <br> As an aside I have also used a plywood board as a floor surface but it's not quite big enough- any suggestions? We need to do a lot of shots so I am worried about the longevity of a paper roll.<br> Thanks so much! I am not sleeping! </p> <p>Reference: <br> http://www.lemaire.fr/shop/en/shop-woman/967-robe-sans-manche-3662519293136.html</p> <p>my options<br> 001- is with strong lights on the background<br> http://s22.postimg.org/k4v3w9zm9/001cropped.jpg<br> 004- a smaller octa as main and background not as strongly lit<br> http://s3.postimg.org/jo5ju1jzn/004_cropped.jpg</p>
