Family Shoot: Larissa ,Jeff, and Sophia

Larissa and Jeff had a pretty tight schedule on the weekend we took these shots, and the only time we could go shooting was at 3 o'clock or so- not ideal in terms of quality of light. A little lighting help is all we needed.






Here is the light setup from behind. One stand holds 2 vivitar 285 flashes, both at full power. The other holds just one, also at full power. A lot of flash was necessary to balance the very bright sunlight, and because I was using a polarizing filter, which darkens the scene quite a bit as well.
