I — Goodbye Gravity
Pro Tip: See this shot on my flickr here and follow me on twitter or facebook.
It had been too long since I got my lights out for a shoot. I’ve been loving natural candid photography over the summer, and I always tend to neglect my strobes a little while the bloody sun is around so much. I wanted to challenge myself a little with this photo, both with lighting quite a tight space & the post production. Let me know what you think.
The Setup
If you follow me on Instagram you've probably already seen the setup shot for this photo, but for those of you who don't (shame on you btw) here it is. I used a ring flash in a somewhat unusual way, suspended on a bungee giving a little pop to the face, worked a treat!
