Had a photo shoot around 2 at the small park. We had lit­tle cloud and plenty of sun­shine. I don’t like to use day­light as a main light source. It causes deep shadow and round the eyes are always dark. I moved the sub­ject next to the tree so that my small flash didn’t have to work too hard. I had my trusty 1D Mark III with 24–70 and light­ing gear was canon 580 EXII + pocket wiz­ard II.  Nick wanted to have port­fo­lio with strong mus­cu­lar image. I could have used two light source with grids from behind act as a kicker light and use a beauty dish as a main light source. This will require large light­ing gear + 1 assis­tant. In this shot, how­ever, I used just 1 light source with shoot through umbrella just out­side of the frame: soft yet direc­tional lighting.
