[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This was a business portrait of Jennifer I took for Photography II last night.

Technicaly this photo if a miracle of photography. Taken on a 20D with a three piece Photogenics light kit. Umbrella 45 off and 45 up on her left. Soft-box dead center, and about 30 up behind/above me. Bare bulb behind her about a foot up aimed at 45 at the backdrop. She is about 3 1/2 feet from the backdrop and I am about 8 feet in front of her.

The REAL miracle is the settings. I set the camera at ISO 100, 1/250s and f/8.0, just as a base, but I had no light meter on me to set the slaves. What you see here is my gut feeling, my first settings for the flashes, and no PP. Miracle...

I needed a hair-light... However, for not having a hair-light I am quite pleased.

She doesn't like having her picture taken, can you tell?
