How to Shoot an All-White Background with a Single Light

If you don’t have access to a full cyclorama wall or large studio, you’re in luck. In this 2-minute video, I’ll teach you how to create a pure white background and light the subject using a single light source.

The Primary Source of Light

The primary source of light is a Profoto D2 500w modified by a 47″ Westcott Zeppelin, which is diffused by a 1-stop inner piece of diffusion material and 1-stop outer piece of diffusion material. Feel free to use any large modifier — for example, larger umbrellas and softboxes are perfect!

Modified by V-Flats

By using a large light source with a decent spread of light, you can then use V-flats to redirect light behind your subject and onto the background.
