Quick Dinner Lighting Setup

Just a short blog post to show a quick and dirty lighting setup that gives nice, even, overhead light.

The light setup

The result

The setup is simple - two speedlites firing into the white ceiling overhead. The result is a huge, bright overhead main light. The spill from the side of the bare flashes can provide a fill as well.

This setup was from a crawfish boil in the California desert. Two Canon speedlites at 1/16 power with the camera exposure seasoned to taste.
