Setting the lights and doing headshots in the studio is easy compared to a group shot, there are so many more variables that you have to account for, not to mention the number of eyes that has to be open at the same time. And everything else.
I don’t do group shots that often, but this time there were three Swedish comedians that needed a couple of publicity photos for their new show. Who can say no to a comedian? Or three?
Instead of trying some complex lighting I took the easy way and kept it as simple as possible. One main light straight on from above and a little fill from below, all on the same axis as the camera.
