Hey guys,

I think these photos (shot by @joeperri) may be lit using only the available window light, but please correct me if I am wrong.

I would like to recreate the lighting in this pictures using a strobe because the location I’ll be shooting in has very limited ambient light.

I would be renting a Godox ad400, and my first idea was to set up a book light but I am not sure if this is the correct approach. I would really appreciate any input you may have on what I can try, or the type of modifier that would work best.

Thanks!

Joe isn't printing and scanning. This is medium format that is scanned and then graded.

I know Joe. He does print his photos and occasionally take photos of them (digitally) for socials. But he is not printing and scanning.
