PostProcessing: Alien skin exposure2 filter

Shot in the Studio4Fun/BoothPhoto booth at the dclic Photo and Video show. I was invited to use the mini studio for a few hours. I had the pleasure to work with Vincent Lamoureux.

Only 1 light was used, near the model, on the right. The barn doors were adjusted to limit the spill

Model is Maude from Mannequin Direct and we met at the show.

Strobe info: Aurora Mini200 with barn doors on the right at 60% power, aiming slightly down.
