On Sunday, as the  sun dropped lower in the sky,  I switched focus from Ursula to Liz. (I shot Liz in the studio a couple of months ago, you can see the images here.)  For lighting Eboh brought a studio strobe with battery pack and a smaller hot shoe strobe. Both were triggered wirelessly using PocketWizards.  This was the first time I’ve used studio lights on location, and it was interesting  balancing the light from the strobes with the natural light. Keep the power of the strobes low for a more natural look as in this shot.

Or crank up the power of the lights, and produce a brighter look more similar to what you see in advertising.

Thanks to Liz for being a great model, Kim for make-up and Eboh for lighting. Looking forward to working with you all again soon.
