"Untitled Portrait"
Today's portrait was inspired by a Viking-esque image I viewed yesterday, then it devolved into something more Neanderthal. That reflects in no way on our model. She was game from the start, and did this to her hair for the portrait. Thank you, crazy lady who lives under the overpass!!! Actually, she is my sister-in-law....and she lives in Seattle. Our key light is a gridded beauty dish at camera-right. It is just out of frame, and you can see the reflection in her eyes. The dish was lowered enough to give some exposure to her hands, as I did not want to use an additional light from the camera's axis. Next, there is a snooted speedlight behind our model, and it supplies the hairlight. Lastly, behind me and to my left is my Light Blaster, projecting an image of a cloudy sky on to the white seamless paper. The Light Blaster is a device which attached to a lens, and projects slide images on to backgrounds....or foregrounds. While the final image is not what I originally intended when we began the journey, I really like where it went. Thanks for staring for a minute!!
