Hello,
Tomorrow I will be taking some portraits of some co-workers for a contacts webpage. I have a decent digital camera, a decent suede gray backdrop, and 2 lights. I am basically looking for any suggestions on portraits with only 2 lights. Any help/input is appreciated. |

Do you have soft-boxes, umbrellas, etc?
The biggest problem with a two light setup is conflicting shadows. You don't want a shadow on each side of the model.
I'd probably use one light as a key light. And the other as a fill/background. You can do this by bouncing the light off the cieling and/or a nearby wall or reflector. |
