Autumn-colored strobes

Inspired by this shoot
-
STROBIST: 3 manual speedlites: Mainlight in white shootthru brolly, blue kicker in a little brolly from behind. 3rd speedlite: bare, orange-red-gelled, directed against the wall.

Btw.: You dont have to buy Honl’s quite expensive “Autumn Filter Kit”. I found the same colors in the cheap LEE Filter Swatch Book. Anyway, if you have too much money: There you go: Honl Autumn Filter Kit.

Lessons learned: The brollies are not perfect for this setup, because there’s a lot of light spill on the background wall. But there are several solutions to this problem:
(1) Don’t use brollies, use softboxes with grids or PAR reflectors
(2) Choose a large background distance
(3) Take one shot with only the red spot and combine that later-on using Photoshop (it’s an easy fix).
