I shot this originally for Project 52 Pro Assignment 2
This is definitely a fashion shot, but I liked it. The inspiration piece is lit with much harder light. I think this is more my style. I also didn't go as far with post, although, again, the contrast may be due to printing. However, I now wish I had used the Maxi Lite and shot it that way.
I know Zack Arias said not to bother shooting fashion unless you are in NY or Paris or maybe seasonally in Miami (which is down the road a bit) but I just liked the image. ;)

Each year my camera club arranges a model night; this year it was last evening. It's not my favourite subject, however these are my three favourite shots.
For LE 52 Weeks Assignment 42
Strobist: 4 lights. A variation on clamshell lighting I call "over/under". The key is an Elinchrom Quadra A head in the Deep Octa, without the outer baffle, boomed over camera axis, at f/5.6. Under this is a B800 in a large octa, providing fill at f/4. B800 on a 20º grid at the background (which is a white cyc), Another B800 as a rim/hairlight behind and camera right. The 2 accent lights are seasoned to taste - no meter readings.
