this is a small lookbook job i did for a fashion client
just sharing because it was a shoestring budget job and with my styling i made it into something a bit more special

i used 1 beuty dish for the main light and 1 snooted strobe to light the smoke and 2 speedlights for additional background flashes which got toned down by the star filter i used on the lens

i have been in awe of your work for years .. i always open you posts first , keep em comin

cheers rob

Very interesting images. I think I prefer
the last one because it is a close up and
eliminates much of the background, but
I like them all.

Who needs a big budget anyway? Looking really good there

Great work Wendell, as usual! As has been said above, I always open your posts first. Love your work!

Wow!

These are just great!

Thanks for giving the lighting info. [Can see your key light on the balloons. The beauty dish has such beautiful light! ... )

Do you own your own smoke machine?

yeah i like the beauty dish

i dont own a smoke machine but there was a dj hire place right next door and decded to get on for $30 per hour

however i do have a foam machine snow machine

thankyou for all the comments

Awesome work as usual. My only gripe is the reflections in the balloons - not sure how to alleviate, but perhaps underexposing slightly or even spraying some fine liquid on the balloons to disrupt the reflections. Small niggle.

awesome stuff wendell, lighting magic at its best - whats with teh second image though, she looks very short in that one, or is that an optical illusion?
