<p>What you’ll need:</p>
<ol>
<li>A camera with off-camera flash functions. I’ll be using my <a href="http://adorama.rfvk.net/0qBeY" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">Canon EOS R5</a>.</li>
<li>A portrait lens, ideally a zoom such as the <a href="https://adorama.rfvk.net/4V4gM" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">RF 70–200mm f/2.8L</a> to compress the scene.</li>
<li>A portable off-camera flash like the <a href="http://adorama.rfvk.net/BXvD1q" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">Profoto A2</a>.</li>
<li>A light modifier such as an umbrella or softbox. I’ll be using the new <a href="http://adorama.rfvk.net/x9xMG5" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">Profoto Clic Octa Softbox</a>.</li>
<li>A lightweight stand such as the <a href="https://adorama.rfvk.net/1NZnD" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">Manfrotto Nanostand</a>.</li>
