so my idea this time is to set up two reflectors, one above and one below, angled at more or less 90 degrees to each other. one flash illuminates the top, one the bottom. it's more of a technical challenge for me than anything else, since my first instinct is usually to grab an umbrella. so a couple shots in, i get the one posted above. it's good, but i'm getting a bit bored with this kind of thing.
so i decided to try and "play at the edges". try and get a shot where i'm not as well illuminated, or only partly illuminated. i set up the colorsplash to shine some color on the background, took a few more, and got this one:
this one's a bit more interesting to me right now. it's not as great of a lighting setup, but it's a less conventional pose and has a very different feel to it, which i'm liking at the moment. the evolution continues.
here's the setup shot:
