How does Paul Rogers's 2-light setup for headshots outperform traditional methods?

My 2-light setup beats the usual “hope the window is kind today” method because:

1. It’s consistent – no clouds, no orange lamps, no raccoon eyes
2. It adds shape and polish, so your client looks like a campaign image, not a webcam grab
3. It separates subject from background so they don’t blend into the wall

Instead of fighting natural light, you’re controlling it. That’s the whole upgrade.

Do you want a simple diagram of where I’d place both lights?
