Here's one we did of Soshanna last year.

1-main light (Alien Bee 1600) at 1 O'clock, camera right and very close.
1-gold reflector to camera left
1-AB 800 for a little light on the background

Shot with a Canon 1Dsmk2, ISO100, f11, 1/200 and a Canon EF24-70f2.8/L



This next image of Cynthia was shot 2 weeks ago, strangely enough, with a very similar lighting setup (with a purple gel on a black background.) My daughter Kortney did the makeup with an airbrush.

Similar camera settings but used the Canon EF 100mm f2.8 Macro USM...
