POTD 28 of 365

When I saw what The Missus was wearing to work today, I asked her (very nicely) if she'd consent to a somewhat formal portrait this evening.

She agreed, and this is what we got (right after I may have inferred that I was One Handsome Devil):

There were a few other shots that were acceptable, but I really like this one.

I don't have a real setup shot for this, but, I do have one I rigged up in Strobox, which is a great FREE app for the iPhone.

The lighting is like this:

160WS strobe, fired into a reflective umbrella, set high and at camera left.

Silver reflector at camera right, even with The Missus, to fill in shadows.

The 580EX at 1/128, snooted, behind The Missus as a hair light.
