Ashley and the Sun

I had a great time helping Ashley out last week. There was this dilapidated farmhouse in South Jersey that she had eyeballed for some practice shooting. After Ashley and I finished a set of pictures inside we attempted some outside with the sun in the background.

This shot is one of my favorites from that day; it captured her great personality and the only major edit I added were some clouds behind her to punch-up the image and add some contrast. It also used my new Alienbee gear. I’ve already decided I’m keeping the AB800 and added a second this week. I’ll probably use them for a couple months and decide again how well they address my versatility needs.

Details: Canon 40D with 100/2 prime at 1/250 @ f8 and AB800 as main light at 1/4 power.
