Here is another quick one. This was a single light set up. I used a strobe with an octagon softbox as the key light and I used the white side of a reflector as a key light by bouncing some of the key light back on to the subject. One of these days I will remember to photograph the set up so I can show exactly what I did but that day isn’t today apparently.
Anyway, when using a reflector try to visualize where you need your reflector to be to best reflect the light. For example, if you want a fill light under the chin, then you need to place the reflector in a way that will make that happen while also being sure that the light you are reflecting is actually going to hit the reflector so it can do what you want it to do. It does make fill lighting a little trickier but remember you can move the reflector and the light source if you are using artificial light. It is a placement puzzle.
A few other quick tips, as always, most places that sell fabric usually have a precut section that has a random assortment of fabric cut to 3 yards and 2 yards. These make for great props in photography. In this session she was naturally drawn to the shiny goldish fabric, so we went with that. Also, and totally unrelated, when using minimal lighting the photos usually convert to grayscale rather well.
