It's Day 23 of the Picture-A-Day Challenge and it just-so-happens to be Saturday too. Even better, I had the wonderful opportunity to photograph Ashley Fogg and her fiance, Jon Baize. They are getting married one week from today! Congratulations Ashley and Jon. Ashley works as an OEF and OIF advocate at the Charleston VA Hospital and Jon is a C-17 pilot for the Air Force.
For this shoot, I had the help of my intern, Jonathan Katzenberg. We used a combination of Nikon SB900 flashes and Speedotron lights.
Nikon D3 and 70-200mm Lens
Manual Exposure ISO 100, F-22 and 1/180 Shutter Speed
(2) SB900 Strobes and (1) Speedotron w/ Beauty Dish
I had one Nikon flash over head as a hair light and one bouncing off of the floor to act as a fill. The main light was the Speedotron head with a beauty dish.

(4) SB900 Strobes and (1) Speedotron
I had two strobes behind the subjects facing toward their backs and one flash over head as a hair light. There was also one bouncing off of the floor to act as a fill. The main light was the Speedotron head with a beauty dish.

(2) SB900 Strobes
I had one Nikon flash over head as the main light and a second on the floor to give them just a bit of fill.

The Speedotron with beauty dish was the main light for Ashley and the Nikon SB900 was the main light for Jon. I shot the light from opposite directions, to give the portrait more dimension.
