 Taken in my school's studio... one strobe behind a white backdrop with another strobe as a key light to the left and a fill light to the right.

Really simple edit, just a RAW conversion, desaturation, and then some un-sharp mask.

I was taking some photos of him, and was trying to get him to act weird, so I had an assistant start throwing National Geographic magazines at him. A few actually hit him in the head. The photo was supposed to be in the style of Richard Avedon.

not quite what I would call centered but still engaging

Not a particularly thought provoking or necessarily flattering pose.

What exactly is "Brandon" doing? The lack of clear message will probably drop your score lower than if he were doing something that made sense to the viewer.
