Location
this photo was taken during a creative session with some latex outfits at the Xi-An Villa in Phuket, ThailandTime
Early afternoon in the spa room overlooking the charming pond of the villa's gardenLighting
very little ambient light mixed with 2 off camera strobes in modifiers (softbox and umbrella) placed at camera left (almost next to camera) and camera right place out of frame in line with the female modelEquipment
5D MkIII 24-105mm trigger, receiver, 2 strobes in modifiersInspiration
A friend has a collection of latex outfits and was so kind to let me borrow them for a photoshoot. My friend, colleague and assistant had the straight jacket and some other creepy props (skeleton) glass syringe and so on. Once the concept, models and location were chosen, we spent a solid day at the villa shooting and this is one of the final shotsEditing

5D MkIII, 24-105mm, 40mm, 50mm, 100mm, 70-200mm, trigger, receivers, strobes with light stands and modifiers, tripod, ND filtersFeedback
keep practicing off camera flash, start with one maybe and eventually add one more and one more (or a reflector)... and study how the light placement and different modifiers affect the final outcome. Shoot, check, adjust and re-shoot
