I have started to use this formula of backlighting with gels recently
"Backlighting any subjects will make any photo more interesting"
Ashley is stunning and has amazing Hair, so the catch lights on her hair really is what i was going for..

Ashley Senior ~ The Blue Wall

needless to say.. her senior photos will be totally different from the norm.. her friends will be super jealous.. LOL..
Rear lighting is a 580EX with a blue gel
and front is the Quadra with the deep octa boomed by her best friend.. Megan.. about 5 feet away just out of the frame.. @ 1.3 power

Ashley Senior ~ Wild Fire Hair
working with Ashley's senior photos.. but clearly she is not the standard Senior being she is a rep for my photography..
so something edgy, with a touch of glam, and motion is what we came up with.
we had her friend Megan to help hold the Elinchrom quadra with the Deep Octa for Key about 7 feet away..
and for the back lighting was the Color Red (requested by Ashley) with a single 580 EXII @ 1/64 power
