Thank u so much phillip for the explanation. This site is so awesome and im realizing that the photographers here actually read their comments and share their knowledge of this art. Thanks for your time....
David, I'm glad you enjoy the pictures. The lighting is quite simple in this shot.
When ever I shoot H/K for a B/G, I use (2) umbrellas approx. 1 1/2 away from the B/G, and pointed at around 40 degrees into the background. This usually fills quite nicely.
The subjects are usually shot with one Medium Photoflex Softbox - High/Camera Right. Notice the catch lights, and shadow area under her nose. A gold 42" reflector positioned right next to her left side for fill.
That's pretty much it. If I have Tina move either left or right depending on what side I want to shoot from, I don't move the lights. I guess I should, but I knew I was going to shoot several different tops, so I didn't want to tweak anything once I got it like I wanted.
First off ..Beautiful woman indeed. Second the next time im having a bad day im gonna look thru your portfolio cuz it makes me grab my camera and just start shooting away. Great lighting, was wondering if u can mention the lighting set-up for this shot and what kinda lighting u use mostly. Keep posting.....
