You are well on your way to becoming a most brilliant portrait photographer. I love the image with Tiffany painted in red. It is dramatic and beautiful. The lighitng is spot on with the use of four, and also when you are not using four. I enjoyed viewing all this new work you posted. Great job. If I can ask, how do you set up your four lights? I have four, but usually just use three, I like the results you achieved with the four.

It really depends on what I am doing. They are most useful when I want a highlight light on both sides from behind and 2 lights to light both sides of the face. I also sometimes stack softboxes.

I was wondering if you stacked the lights. I thought I saw three catchlights in the models eyes with the white background. I use two from behind and only one up front, with a reflector on the other side. Well, I am greatly impressed with your work. Nicely done.

lovely studio work!
these two are my favs

the body painting shot is also really cool (the body painting itself especially), tho the photography on that one lacks some important aspect for me. if i can figure out what exactly i'll let you know...;)

keep it up!
