Portrait of Ashley

Medium size octabox above and just little right of camera. Reflector below and in close for fill.
Reflector to left of camera for fill.

I was going for what I think is usually called a beauty shot and used clamshell lighting. The shadows are probably a bit strong for my original goal, but I liked the result and wanted to share.

Like it allot, the pose is wonderful and the lighting is great, maybe more fill to remove the nose shadow. Very well done.

Wow. Your lighting looks perfect to me. She has such a natural beauty and you captured her well.

I love the pose and the lighting, I don't think the shadows are to strong and agree with you I love the result.

I really like it. I like how the simplicity of it keeps anything from detracting from those amazing eyes! Really nice job.

Fantastic work - you could use this as a lesson on how to do it 'right' - well done to deliver it simply and directly.

Excellent placement of the lights. This is a nice, clean, fresh pose. I love that is has not been processed to death. Thank you.

Great lighting, the mild shadows work for me as well. Nice details, good DOF. Very dramatic/serious look on her face.

Straightforward and honest portrait. I like that there isn't so much fill flash. I think too many times "professional" type shots just leave the face with no shadows at all and to me that looks fake and unnatural. This is really lovely and her eyes are to die for.

I love this. Your lighting setup and the relaxed look on your model provide so much more atmosphere than the usual glimmery-dramatical-multi-lights setups you can see out there...Less is more, and this is great!
