HI Dan,

Set the camera to Tungsten white balance, have a conversion gel on the flash lighting the subject, have no conversion gels on the background flashes, and you get this result.

Easy done, great work! How did the background become blue?

You even manage to make a hallway look cool! Nice work.

A question for you now… I am currently just running with 1 Canon 580EX speedlight, what other components would you suggest I acquire next to get started with my speedlight studio?

Cool white balance? CTO gel?

I’m a big fan of that setup. I don’t find myself using it too much but I have a lot of creative fun with it when I do.
