Description

Another one of the shots that I had to muscle my way into past the paparazzi like photographers at the Exposure Photography and Imaging show I attended this past weekend. This particular model was at the show the first day I attended but I didn't have my camera. She was dressed like a puppet that day and had all these strings attached to her. I missed that opportunity but I didn't miss the next day when she was dressed as the bride.
There was a 86 inch parabolic umbrella with constant lights placed inside and a diffuser on front of the umbrella positioned in front of the model and positioned on axis. There was a softbox with constant lights placed camera left.
Even with constant lights I still had to shoot at ISO 1000 but I was standing a little further back than I would usually shoot because of the photography mob that was positioned in front of her.
