A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

Headshots setup with 2 flashes and 1 reflector (alien.top)

I'm taking some headshots of my work colleagues at a social event in a few hours but I realised too late that a lot of my equipment is either lost or not working any more.

As a result of that I only have the following working gear in terms of lighting equipment:

2 flashes
Big 5 in 1 reflector (150cm or 5ft long)
2x light stands
Small rectangular and octagonal flash diffusers (20cm so nothing big)

I know this isn't perfect but what's the best setup I could achieve with this limited equipment?

They want formal ones with plain white background which they'll put on their LinkedIn etc. Most of them have horrible pictures that were taken like a mugshot using a webcam so I'm confident that whatever I do will be a step up anyway but still want to do the best I can.
