For this dramatic, lighting setup Karl and Urs deviate from the normal conventions of portrait photography as they set out to achieve a full length portrait using a single light source.
Using a single, bare bulb from a low angle they show how it’s possible to execute precise control of a light with just a few simple accessories. Starting from the very beginning, the pair demonstrate each result as they, bit by bit, tweak their image until they reach the final, dramatic result below. Starting in the large studio, they then go on to demonstrate how the same results are perfectly achievable in a small studio too, due to the creative techniques used to achieve the lighting.
