The goal in high key portrait lighting is minimization
of shadows, and providing the softest edges on those that exist. Lighting
is extremely flat. In the above illustration, two large softboxes are
placed on either side of the camera, and as close together as possible.
In the absence of soft-boxes, two white flats serving as reflecters,
bouncing light from a pair of strobes or floodlights would achieve the
same broad-sourced soft kind of light. A white background is illuminated
by a broad floodlight with the intesity to place it as pure white in
the exposure. See the resulting portrait below.
