Nathan the pirate

My friend Nathan is a true pirate at heart. Every time there is a happening / party / event, he is there with his pirate costume and his good spirits !

The setup was 2 lastolite hotrod stripboxes, one to provide a rim light for the body and the hat. Another to camera right as the main light in the image.

I added a softlighter to camera left, with extremely low power, to provide a fill and a catchlight.

Nathan was at his first experience in front of the camera, this shot was made right after I asked himĀ­....''Show me your face if I stole your pirate loot''

Nikon D750 + Nikon 70-200 f2.8 vr2 @f8, 1/200th

Tethered shot to Capture one, Capture one for Raw processing, and Photoshop for final touchups and adjustments.

Nice shot

Thanks alot Lee ! First time working with these striplights, my new workhorse !

Nice!

Thank you very much Austin :)

I wonder how will it look like to have more shadows on the left side of the image. Other than that great portrait.

Thanks for the comment Mr.Alvarez
