For this post we will be taking a look at this portrait of Geraldine who is a Yoga and Pilates instructor and also performer and dance on cruise ships.
This was one of the setups used during the shoot.
(BTS Info Rendering done in Set A Light 3D V3)
The final setting show on the Set A Light Render are a bit off, the software needs work IMO to dial in power settings V results of lights you can program in. Anyway.
