RE: My most EPIC portrait ever!
Thanking you kindly. Yep definitely intentional with the lighting. I always prefer the face to be noticeably the brightest part of the image. Plus if I was to light her whole body I'd have needed a much bigger softbox and this would have resulted in lighting much more of the background too.
Oh I see. I think I should try this sometime.
Do you think a reflector can produce similar effect?
I don't think so. Using off camera lighting lets you generate a lot of more light then you'd typically have occurring naturally. Using different modifiers lets you shape that light how you want it too. Don't get me wrong reflectors are great and can really help create some beautiful shots, but I don't think it would be much help for this type of look.
Very well Noted. Thank you ☺
