Fashion lighting doesn`t need to be complicated to be striking or high fashion. Furthermore, one light doesn´t mean they are "boring" either. In fact, many of the lighting setups on the covers of the biggest fashion magazines are achieved with a single light. Lindsay had like to share 3 of his favorite fashion (full length) setups that you can achieve with a single light, and here is what's great about it-- they all look totally different.

They have completely different vibes and could be used for a commercial catalog, dramatic portrait, or fashion editorial. Even better, her setup uses simple modifiers! Take a large umbrella with diffusion and some v-flats, and that´s all you need! Simple can be better and in fact, some of the most timeless, memorable images in fashion photography have simple lighting!
