Clamshell Test

*Link*

Photo won't upload for some reason so if anyone knows why that is I'd love some help. But the photo was a test at Clamshell set up with two YN 560 iii speedlights each with a Rogue Large soft box/ light bender. Shot with a 7d Mark ii with a 50mm STM shot at 1/320th and f/3.2 ISO 200. Went for the shallow DOF I like that in portraits here and there, black and white and cut half of the face off for some added "drama" if you'd call it that. But I have just begun to start more and more on indoor lit portraits so I really hope to get better so if anyone has any constructive criticism or tips I would very much appreciate it! Thanks all!

The bottom light source with clamshell should be weaker than the main light. In your image its the other way around.

Okay great thanks for the tip I'll fix that next time!

Telling ghost stories? ;)
