Brandi is a body builder who is entering a fitness competition. I would say her level of fitness is high. She is also quite beautiful (I know I had to tell you that); I removed a couple of small blemishes but that was it for post. No general skin retouching.

Previously unpublished work from earlier in the year. This month is apparently "post processing practice month."
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'm not shooting for my portfolio. This is more in the vein of what Sue Bryce of Lindsay Adler do - shooting for their client base.
I actually think the flatter lighting is easier than traditional portrait lighting.
Strobst: Key is a B800 im a large octa, camera right, f/4. Fill from camera left from a large softbox, f/2.

From a hair series for the LE 52 Weeks project, assignment 21.
This has an extreme amount of retouching, which I normally don't like/do. However, for this image, I felt like the retouching almost had to be surreal, the skin flawless. EVen if it was supposed to be about hair.
I still don't know how I feel about it.
Strobist: B400 in a large octa, camera left, f/8. 2 B800s in softboxes for background, approximately f/16.

PP in LR3/CS5
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.

This series was to be filled by ringflash, but I liked the result of the rim test by itself.
