In this course you will see 4 different lighting setups using 1 strobe light. Some of the lighting setups have different variations making it really 8 different lighting setups. You will see how I shoot out of my home, and how in a small space I am able to create the type of beauty photos that I will show you.

The lighting setups include: Beauty Dish - with & without a grid, Umbrella - direct & feathered, Magnum Reflector, and Barebulb - direct & bounced.

I will show you my equipment, how I find my teams, what happens before the shoot, and of course each lighting setup. I also included 8 raw photos for you to be able to practice retouching and also so you can see what we did today and get familiar with each lighting setup.

I started photography 2.5 years ago and I’ve been able to accomplish a lot in that short amount of time by practicing and being 90% self taught. I am showing you what I wished someone showed me when I was learning, in a short class without getting too complicated and just showing you what you are most curious of - my lighting setup.

If you try any of these lighting setups, feel free to tag me in the hashtag #leylastefani and I will be checking it constantly to see what you create.

Thank you for considering my course, this will be the first of many.
