HHC3-1262-2
The model is Rachel V. This class demonstrate the use of a basic 5 light studio setup. The background was a grey muslin. There was a main light to camera right, a fill light on the left close to the camera, a hair light, and two background lights. The background lights were turned off after image HHC3-1263.
The pesky hair light on her left shoulder (see image HHC3-1263) is gone in this image. Rachel had been to the beach and a slight tan line can be seen on her left shoulder. Depending on the use of the portrait, this could be a problem. The easy fix is to cover the area with clothing during the photo session. A little Photoshop time could also remove the tan line.
The original of this image is HHC3-1262 (next). I thought this image looked better as a square format.
