Sometimes the most powerful portraits come from the simplest setups. In this episode, I'm breaking down one of my favorite one-light techniques—a beauty dish in a butterfly formation—that blends the softness of beauty lighting with the drama of sculpted shadows. I'll share how to position your light, plus a few easy variations using a diffusion sock, grid, and v-flats to control the look. Whether you're shooting editorial or personal branding, this setup will give you striking, professional portraits with just one light.
