To capture this image I used only one light source which was the Satellite Staro. The Satellite Staro reflector gives off a soft yet brilliant light. The strongly centre-orientated diffuser adds brilliance, making the light more attractive than that of a homogeneously illuminated softbox. In this shoot the Satellite Staro is placed above the model, pointing light down onto the model and shooting without the honeycomb grid.
The first thing you notice is that the background is illuminated. This is deliberate, explaining why the honeycomb grid is not used. The Satellite Staro creates natural and even shadows, which is an important light characteristic.
Sometimes less is more and I was happy to capture that beautiful motion with just one light in combination with the perfect lightshaper in this case.
