    of course! Highway 35 from San Mateo all the way to redwood city/woodside. If you stop at vista point and Alice's Restaurant you'll see some great views!

    Doing updated promo photos for our dance/stage troupe.

    I wanted to do a couple different looks, and I have just barely enough gear to run two setups concurrently.
    The location that we were going to use became unavailable at the last minute, so we instead set up at one of the girls' houses.

    In the front living room, I set up for a blown-out white background: The last little bit of my small roll of white seamless, and three Speedlights: two on the backdrop (one on the stand to frame right, one sitting on the mantel to frame left) and one in a reflective umbrella. The room is small enough that there was plenty of spill/bounce for fill light.

    Setup:

    Setup 2 was in the sitting-room-turned-dance-practice-room adjoining the front living room. I used my black glittery felt for the backdrop, and two Elinchrom D-Lite it 2 studio heads with the basic kit 22" softboxes. I forgot the front diffusers at home, so I just used the bare light and the silver-pebbled interior of the box - the light quality is a bit harder and more specular, but I think that's good for presenting a look that's very different than the flatter light of the white setup.

    Setup was three Speedlights in the back corner of the stage, using the black-painted plywood on the outside of the air handler as a background.

    ^ Roush. Few things if you want to make these 'pop' a little more without a lot of effort. First thing i noticed is they are all slightly underexposed (based on my work monitior), IMO. The model should stand out a little more from the background and in these shots she does not. I would lighten all the shots slightly and increase the mids. Also, the skin looks pale on the first too, i would add a little more warmth and i think it would help with this to bring back a better mood to the shots.

    No way near as good as everyone else's but anyway, these are some of my recent ones:

    Nikon D40x
    18mm-55mm kit lens
    Quality reduced for internet









    Light was fading and I left my tripod at home, so all of them have some degree of blur.
