I spent a few hours on Friday helping a friend work out whether it was feasible to use her home for portrait shoots. I knew the natural light in the space was often lovely but the main idea was to work out how to reproduce it on those days when the sun wasn't playing nicely.
.. and then at the end of the shoot I had an idea that I could stuff Bernadette in a corner of the kitchen and do some of my vintage-Hollywood-glamour-with-a-modern-take thing.. and made this..
All thoughts gratefully received! I like it a lot but suspect that I'm a bit close to it and just being pleased with my own cleverness.
Lighting notes..
1. AD360 with 5" reflector and grid hidden behind the ceiling lights, close to Bernadette - light stand 'shopped out
2. Speedlite with black foamy thing handheld by Vanessa standing on a chair for a little hair light, just out of shot to the right
3. Natural light from outside through a large diffuser panel gaffer taped to the window, modified by the black strip blinds
4, 5, 6, 7 Tungsten bulbs hanging from the ceiling (just seen)
8 Small & intermittent constant Godox LED thingy pointing at the plant & flagged off Bernadette. Not sure it was actually working in this shot though.
