First October Test

The month of October is going to be given over to testing. A good chance to try new things, different lights, settings and (rather dull) work-flow methods.

So without further ado, time to introduce the team - Bintou, Barbara and Nicole.

The setup for the day was actually very straight forward. We were in studio C at 3rd Ward (more on them at a later date) so lots of space and lots of white to fill. Very simple two light set-up. Huge octobox as key light and fill by reflection. Also trying absorption, by placing large black boards either side of the body in the close shots. Looks great on dark skin.

The good news is that the studio is warm enough to run around bare foot, just about enough power sockets and a good coffee place nearby. The bad news... well nothing yet.

The best are being retouched right now, in house !
