For this image, which was a product photo for the company that makes these adjustable steps for mechanics to stand on, I could have used ambient light. Again, the ceiling lights are not daylight balanced and would cause a color shift, so for this photo it is easy to use only strobes. At about 3:00 I placed a 60” white umbrella and pointed it at him for an edge light and to light the large tool box and wall.
