“Everything negative – pressure, challenges – is all an opportunity for me to rise.”

Kobe Bryant

For this shoot I used a 2 light set up. Here’s a break down and bts of the image above using the Paul C Buff‘s AlienBees Flash units. On the key light, I had a 7″ Standard Reflector on a boom arm, camera right of the subject. To change the color of the white cyc wall background, I used colored gels clamped onto a 7″ Standard Reflector of two AlienBees Flash units, aimed at the background. The back light (camera left of the subject) was aimed slightly towards the athlete to have some red fall off on the right side of the athlete. The opposite light (had a purple gel) was more behind the athlete aimed at the background to have no fall off on the athlete.
