A beautiful lady, Steve and they make a very nice looking couple! Did you use any type of light set-up on Dawn's photo or were you lucky enough to get perfectly even natural lighting? A very nice portrait indeed!

My beautiful wife :-)
Two Gridded Strip Boxes in Clamshell formation
1 Kicker camera right and behind with 45 degree reflector
Snapped this one today. Was experimenting blending manual flash power with ambient. Held the flash out in front of the camera with my left arm, using the pop-up to trigger it. Sigh.. tax returns can't come fast enough.
Attachment 322
This was at 1/8th power. Looking at it in post I really wish I was at 1/16th instead.
Thank you Denise, this was midday, natural lighting, with a light coloured reflective roof, outdoors.Quote:

Sure thing. A kicker light is just another name for a rim light or an accent light. I used it to light her hair and add a highlight to her face. Without it her head would completely fade into the background (tonal merger). There's nothing wrong with that, but it was not the look I desired. I was using monolights and reflectors are just basic modifiers that restrict the light to a specified angle of view (like zooming on a speedlight).Quote:
