The lighting set up that I used for this pictures was quick and fun. I used 2 Speed Lights YN600EX-RT with the transmitter YN-E3-RT and 2 light stands, one of the coolest features of this lights is the fact that the radio receiver is built into the lights, you don't need to attache any extra piece of equipment. The versatility of this set up is limit less, super portable and light weight. To light these group of people the first thing that I did was to find a shade because the sun was right on top of us. I put a flash on the left side of the frame and the other behind the group with 2 purposes, create a rim light and mimic the sun, yes, the sun in the picture is my flash.
This is the same picture from above already printed.
