Lovely lady, great lighting on these! What modifiers did you use here on the green latex outfit?


Some more of my previous older work with Bowens lighting:

Thank you... Your images are fantastic also!

They were lit with 3 Gemini 500 Classics

Cam left: key light with bounced umbrella

Cam right: medium softbox used as fill and bare flash behind the model also can right..

Wow! Great work guys! Do Calumet Travelite count as Bowens? I still have and use them occasionally for events.

Rushmore, unlike you though, I have transitioned to PCB Einsteins in recent years.
