ah I see. I should have the power on the strobe relatively low then I would guess? To avoid harsh highlights on the surface since its closer?

Hello again. Still shooting linens for a company. I wanted to ask for advice on how to recreate window lighting and highlights on a bed such as the examples I attached. I have 3 studio strobes, and large octagon softboxes. I also have the stock circular modifiers that come with strobes. I shoot...

Oh yeah, we spend a lot of time steaming out wrinkles and often times they still wont come out, or they just appear again. We have to fix it in photoshop most of the time which is unfortunate.
