Description Testing out lighting and my set up. And I liked out this turned out.
I am yet to seek out more models... I'm scared to. I want to see myself doing something that would MAKE a model want to work with me first.
Practice makes perfect I suppose. But I liked this one

That's absolutely stunning, I can't imagine a model turning you down with some of the shots in your portfolio, your work is brilliant. Oh, and gorgeous as well

good attempt with the backlighting. the colors and light are flattering. i remember going through this phase of self-portrait to test out the new technique before attacking a model with it! anyway, i'd point the backlight a bit higher on your head or move it a bit towards the right so you don't get the hotspot in the hair. try to move a bit further from the backdrop too, because your main light is casting a shadow on the backdrop. i can see your lamp in there

You came out with that model look, so that should be appealing to other potencial models.
Also, the lighting looks pretty good.

I love the overall lighting, did you use a reflecter? Maybe you should try adding gel to your lights?

epiphany In reply to Azyiu [2006-01-09 08:24:53 +0000 UTC]

I used one high wattage bulb (cant thing of the percise number right now) with a floodlight reflector attatched. Then the same in a smaller version behind me.

And that was my lil set up

Part of me loves the washed out look, but part of me craves a true deep black. I like the lighting either way, makes it feel less studio and more natural and on a side note, I love the hair.

morningrise [2006-01-09 03:26:40 +0000 UTC]

the lighting on this came out really good.... you are getting really good at setting up the lighting and everything... looks way professional. I can't wait to see what else you come up with when you get some new backdrops and stuff

I love you.
