Here are some shots inspired by lighting set ups by Lindsay Adler…. This set up requires 3 flashes and red backdrop. There are 3 different modifiers (below you will find the lighting chart with location of all the lights):
- backdrop light with line patterns was created with BFP optical snoot from Godox with gobo (you can replace it with any other gobo pattern such as hearts, leaves or dots)
- beauty dish was used as key light
- Reflector with bar doors was used to fill the shadows with magenta color

I put together this outfit using just two pieces: a cute pink bodysuit and a lovely pink bow top, both from AR Backdrops. And guess what? The sunglasses I’m rocking? I snagged them on Allie for just 2 euros! This outfit shows off my knack for mixing and matching pieces to create a standout look. It’s all about combining different elements to make something unique and eye-catching. So next time you’re putting together an outfit, don’t be afraid to get creative and mix things up!
In every setup, I make it a point to explore a range of poses to capture the essence of versatility. Whether it’s striking full-body shots that showcase the entirety of the ensemble or intimate close-ups that highlight intricate details, I aim to offer a diverse array of poses in each session. By doing so, I not only ensure that every aspect of the model and outfit is showcased but also deliver a portfolio that boasts versatility and depth.

Try a variety of angles for the sunglasses to see which one best suits the form of your face and the emotion you want the picture to convey. Placing them atop your head can provide a more carefree, laid-back feel, while tilting them slightly downward can impart a sense of mystery or refinement. Make the model laugh, smile, jump or dance. What helps me to create a good and cheerful mood is proper music 🙂
Play with Reflections: Make use of the sunglasses’ reflective surfaces to give the picture more visual appeal. Try moving the camera and yourself in different ways to get interesting reflections of the surrounding environment, the photographer, or even your own face.
Here is a chart depicting the lighting setup I used for each shoot. I played with the amount of lights and angles to get the best look so do not hesitate to experiment and try new set ups to get the best result in your studio.
