Sometimes the simplest of images can be the most elegant and timeless-- it's all about the details! Some of the most influential photographers of all time (Penn, Avedon, Watson, Ritts) created simple silhouettes that have become iconic images.
In this video, I show you how I create two different silhouette setups using a single strobe.
BTW, if you want to learn more about using a single strobe for creative effects, check out my course One Light Artistry at lindsayadler.ph...
Setup 1:
In the first setup I use a V-flat World V-Flat and Profoto strobe on a floor stand pointed directly into the V-flat for a beautiful, wrapping light source. You can adjust the position of the flats as well as the angle of light to vary your effects/bounce.
Setup 2:
Place a 3x4ft softbox directly behind your subject. Be sure to use a softbox with double diffusion and place the center of the softbox (hot spot) behind the subject's body. Use a silver reflector as needed to bounce more light onto the subject.
Remember, in both of these setups you may need to increase the contrast and clarity to create an extremely crisp result. I prefer black and white for this imagery because the color is not an important element of the frame, and stripping out the color leaves the key elements of shape, texture, and form remaining.
