Here’s a quick “behind-the-scenes” photo of a pasta shoot I did this afternoon. My main light was diffused window-light, with some fill light from a Nikon SB-800 speed-light to the left, softened with a shoot-thru umbrella. I also used a large silver reflector to bounce some of the light in to fill the background. I used a PocketWizards to fire the speedlight, but removed the one from my 7D to capture the BTS image.

wow, this is a lesson all in one pic
I would love to see more behind-the-scenes. This one was great!
Thanks for this lightning fast tutorial !
Intended or not, it’s a great lesson. I would love to see more behind the scenes stuff. A photo of the setup, brief description, that’s all that’s needed! Brilliant!
The resulting inset photo sure makes me hungry. I think you accomplished your mission.
Stunning!
Yum Yum!
