Flash Lighting Introduction

ADD EXPOSURES 

Beauty Lighting

Beauty lighting is a successful way to create a flattering image that catches the light in the eyes of the model. 
It's great for making the model look fresh and soft to the eye. 

The softness is achieved by bouncing the light off an umbrella. 
Below is a diagram demonstrating the Beauty lighting studio setup.
The default angle for the light source is 0'.
