Two matched umbrellas over and under the lens. You can change the shape and location of the bottom umbrella by bringing it lower, but I have always liked the catchlight specular in the eyes. In this shot the umbrellas are very close, but it can also be a very cool source if there are four umbrellas and you are 3X the diameter of the umbrellas away from the subject... more like a wall of light at that point. No wrap at all, nearly a ringlight but without that boring, flat ringlight look.
This was shot on the second day of my creativeLIVE show a couple of weekends ago. Minimal photoshop (this kind of light wipes out any and all facial anomalies.
