Corporate Headshots with the Lastolite Hi-Lite

I’ve found myself using the Lastolite Highlite more and more for corporate headshots as of late. Its ideal for the standard headshot, or groups of upto 5 people.

I’ve also used it as one huge softbox, miming a large window. Combined with a Elinchrom Octobox the light is incredibly soft and ideal for portrait work.

Here are a few setup shots of this setup in action, The hi-lite is 7ft wide, by 6ft high, I’ve raised it up on a background stand to allow me to use it in its wider orientation to fit more people into the group shots (gives me 1ft more width wise, over height). I find this setup works great too for a photo booth setup.

Lighting Config :: Background f11, Octobox f8 – Canon 1D MK IV – Canon 70-200mm L @ 1/200, f8

And what do the results look like?
