Did a shoot for a local designer today with the help of Ainoko. Here's two pictures.
Unfortunately she didnt want to go with the locations I had in mind and was set on shooting it at UH..

Nice shots PocketNinja. What kind of lighting setup did you use? Trying to learn more about this type of photography.

There were quite a few keepers but too lazy to edit them.. Lighting was a single AB1600 with either a silver umbrella or a white one. I may add another AB to the setup soon.

Great bargain on PWs, if anyone is interested:

I like this shot !! The squirrel is saying "hey you, try catch me "

I will never understand the Hawaiian obsession with squirrels. My friend was telling me about his trip to the mainland, and he spent most of his time taking pictures of squirrels.

Squirrels? I thought they were mongooses.

PoketN: nice work as always. Lighting is whack! Do you use a light meter?

Thanks Linkzi, I dont use a light meter. Normally I roughly know where the light should be but I had a hard time using the Alienbee, the output of light is really strong..

Here's one final image from this series..

That photo really shows some lighting power.

Photoshop fakes some lighting power
I think that shot could have easily be done with a 580EX's power, but the clean spread of light can only be achieved by a monolight..

Agreed! thanks for sharing. I like how you highlighted her hair.
