Cough up some techincal details pls... especially concerning the lighting. How much equipment did you drag out to the field?
Sorry for the delayed response. The lighting-- softbox as key and umbrella as fill powered by a vagabond. I generally shoot at f/8 and I know the shutter was 1/250 to make the sky dark.
Bugs weren't a problem, just scratchy weeds! The MUA/hair stylist went along and both her and me were sneezin' like crazy throughout the shoot. We had to move to a couple of locations to get the sky right too.
Anyway, posted this shot here 'cause I wanted to enter the dgrin photo of the year contest and the rules said it had to be posted on dgrin to enter.

Stunning shot, love the underexposed back ground and exposed girl. IMo she is a little to far to the left.

nitpicking: i don't dig the two pieces sticking up next to her, they are distracting. i would prefer dead space next to her.
i checked out the rest of this shoot on your site, very nice work. did you have any trouble dealing with bugs?
