[QUOTE="Moab Man, post: 611135, member: 11881"] A two light setup will absolutely work. You can always add a reflector to the mix. You could set up the lights diagonally from each other as a key light and rim. Or as a key and fill. I have plenty of light and still like the diagonal lighting arrangement. In time you could add a third and fourth light depending on how far you want to go. This is an image I did with a key light angled and above and the other unit as a rim light. If you don't want it so dark on the shadow side you could simply add in a reflector for very little cost. [ATTACH type="full" width="30%"]248056._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
