Studio Shoot with Marcie

So today I scheduled my first shoot in the studio. Setting up lights and having assistants is extremely fun. Marcie was easy to shoot as she's a pageant lady. She wanted some head shots and crown shots for a pageant she's participating in within a week.


Light is fun to play with, so I've determined. I have started a little notebook of diagrams of different set-ups that I have already executed, seen someone else use, or plan on testing in the future. The shot above consisted of 5 different lights. A big soft box in front for her face, two rim lights on either side, shooting into foam board to illuminate her sides, and two umbrellas pointing towards the wall of the studio.

Marcie is Miss Cabarrus County, and is now going for Miss North Carolina. She asked for the shoot so she could have a head shot in a program going on this weekend. I gladly said yes, and brought her in the studio for one of the best times I've had behind a camera.
