Softbox was set up in front of her, camera left. I'd been using 2 boxes earlier at 45 degrees for full on glamour lighting and killed the one on the right, then moved this one a little further back but still in front of her, to cut the light so it was coming more from her side, about 4-5' away. I used a flag to stop the spill onto the background but the light was dialed so low it wasn't really an issue as the b/g was about 6 feet away. Hope this makes sense. It sounds more complicated here than it actually was. It was the angle of the light, rather than feathering, that stopped the wraparound onto her dark side.
