This time around we get together for lingerie/glamour/implied shoot. The main plunder is gonna be processed soon, in the mean time - a few setup shots:

#1: Becca (MUA) and Jessica (model) are taking a quick break while I'm adjusting the lights:

#2: Jessica is getting ready for her "sexy minx" look:

#3: Gray card - cheap and 100% reliable source of white balance:

The finals will follow soon (most likely in GF, though).

    Nikolai,

    I like the setup shots. Gives me a "behind the scenes" look.

    Question... I've seen some of your other shots on this same couch. Is this your typical setup for this layout? One light with the softbox grid and then large reflectors for fill? Or is there another light some located off camera?

    Alex, first of all, there are TWO lights + reflector.
    You can clearly see the hair one, but it's hard to see main (a hint - take a very close look at the bottom of the 1st image-)

    And no, it's not the setup I use over and over. In fact, this was the first time I used this particular one, and even then I changed it a few times during the shoot. I'm always trying to find different lighting solutions, so I experiment often. :-)
