Annette in Studio 108

Continuing with my photoshoot with Annette...

 

We switched the setup a bit to do some low-key portraits.

 

Some technical things got me a bit annoyed: why was I getting such a sharp transition from light to dark across her forehead (in this photo, it is more pronounced than in the others I've posted)? Why did my "gray" muslin come out with a purple cast (if I set the white balance to make it gray, Annette comes up looking a bit green). Speaking of white balance, why is it so far off the flash gun's manufacturer's claims of color temperatures?

 

Strobist info: Yongnuo 560ii through 48" octabox high camera left, foamcore reflector camera right, Youngnuo 560ii through small grid high camera left behind model as accent light, wrinkly gray muslin as backdrop.
