Love it, the lighting is excellent, would you consider telling how it was done, what you used?

She reminds me of Lucy Thomas, an Irish lass, who has sung, amongst other tunes, La Vie en Rose!

Behind The Lens

Location

The picture was taken in s studio in Copenhagen

Time

It was taken at night, even though that's not important as it is a studio shot.

Lighting

The lighting was pretty basic: I have a large octobox a little to the left of the model and another light on the background. I also had a large reflector to the right of the model to give a little fill light from that side.

Equipment

The camera was a Canon 5D Mk II and the lens an EF 24-105 mm f:4. It was shot at 100 iso, 1/125, f:8

Inspiration

It was just a model shoot with this very beautiful model who was very inspiring to work with.

Editing

Raw conversion in Lightroom and B/W conversion in Silver FX Pro II from Nik Software

In my camera bag

I carry what I need for the job I'm about to do. For this I had my Canon 5D Mk II, my 24-105 mm f:4 and my 70-200 mm. f:4.

Feedback

Experiment with different light setups, but try not to complicate things and use more lights than needed for the job. Most of my studio work is done with one or two lights and a reflector, and if you know how to use it you can get a long way with a simple setup like that.
