I rarely get the chance to shoot men's fashion, Jay hit me up about 2 weeks ago and we had a great shoot today... this is one of the photos - about half way through that he was really keen on. He's an up-and-coming guy mostly doing runway but trying for more print / lifestyle work.

5' octabox on camera right
Silver umbrella really high, camera left behind him for hair light / rear fill
Gold reflector below octabox on camera right leaning against the light stand to give a little bit of fill from the the reflection off the hair light.

5d2, 50mm f/1.8 @ f/11, 1/160th, LR3 for post.

From the start of the session - kinda pissed, his slacks were wrinkled beyond belief so every full body shot I have is basically worthless - but these I'm fairly happy with. He wanted a higher fashion / GQ style to them, to me that meant hard lighting, something I wish I could shoot more of but it doesn't always match the subject matter.

22" silver beauty dish to camera right, about 7-7.5' off the ground, no other lighting. 5d2, 100mm f/2, LR3 for post processing

I'm not thrilled with how the tie looks and may go back in and try to burn it down a bit more, in real life it was actually that shiny due to the high quality silk used and the color, but in the photo it's a bit distracting.

Sometimes even the subject is appealing in actual when it gets through the lens it doesn't get its original appeal.. Just like what happen to your subject's tie..
