session: kristofer

i spent monday in my friends fathers studio. thanks for lending it to us. anyway, my friend (the same) wanted me to shoot him before he got rid of his beard. this was my first time in a real studio; technically it wasn't very difficult, but controlling the light was. i need to get myself a bit of gear and start practicing.



my original idea was to have a soft even light over the face, originating directly from the sides of the face. i DID NOT want to do a portrait 101. this turned out to be harder then expected. in retrospect, maybe i should have put the strobes a bit further away from the face.



update: a few more pictures:
