Hi all,
I have a shoot coming up this Saturday with 5 girl friends (as in, they are friends that are girls). They want some fun photos of them all together so that they can frame some and give them as Christmas presents to one another.
So, I will have an assistant with me and I'm thinking that for ease of movement and getting different shots quickly, it would be easier if I have my assistant holding a big shoot through umbrella for me (rather than having it on a lightstand).
My question though, will one umbrella be enough to light 5 people? I do have another light if required, and I might have this bare at the back opposite to the umbrella for some rim lighting. But ideally having one light which is held by the person helping me would make my life much easier.
Any thoughts?
Tips on posing 5 people at once would also help
