AI notes

The octabox provides soft, diffused light on the model. The reflectors help to open up shadows and add a subtle kick light. A light is placed behind these 2 reflecors, giving a V shape light. That light reflects from the shimmer, giving a pattern that adds visual interest to the seamless muted orange/peach background, and a snoot aiming at the model's face to add a glow
