I don't think its a light box, as their are shadows, so I think the light is coming from above

This man knows his stuff.

I do have some stuff to make my own light box but not had the time to make it so still doing it the oldskool way. I have some white card setup in the kitchen across the surface and up the wall.
Loads of lights but the main light is from the flash which is an external one bounced off the white ceiling and walls.

Usually I don't need to adjust the levels but sometimes its useful if the white isn't pure enough.
