Facade

This was an adventure. Shot on deadline day. Took about an hour to find the house as I was given wrong info on locale. Then when I got there, Simon(model) and I had to carry all my gear about 150 yds thru a crop and waist high grass to get to the door.
When I finally got all my lights where I wanted them, my speedlites werent flashing! (did not realize that they dont fire when in wireless mode when a cybersync is attached) So I had to settle with just 2 lights instead of 3.

Main light is a 400w/sec Strobe with a yellow gel set at camera left pointed up at the ceiling to light the room and give it that "grungy" feel. Then the second strobe, also a 400w/sec strobe, outside the door to the left with a blue gel to give it some seperation and simulate outside neon light. My third light would have been set to the camera right and slightly behind model to give a ever so slight rim light to that side and seperate his arm from the background.

Here are some more from that day.

Anything less than bare feet would have made this feel wrong. I like it.
