Setup 6: Justine Reyes

Snow day complicated matters with equipment, but we persevered. Used 2 600 Watt Profoto heads with medium softboxes. Side light cranked to full power, top light reduced down to lowest power. Shot with a 35mm lens and then cropped down. Used flags to simulate smaller softboxes.
