day 87 - lit like a strip club



for this one i wanted a really strong color contrast on me, but little color contrast on the background. it seems like if you want to keep light off the background, you have to stay away from the shoot through umbrellas.... they just throw too much light around. so for this one i went with a silver reflective umbrella and my lumiquest sb-3 softbox.

the silver umbrella had two cuts of blue gels, and my sb-3 had a cto gel on it. i also set up a reflector camera right, thinking it would add a bit of warm light to the cool light area, but i'm not sure it did anything.
