Mika Kallio's picture

Sunset Strobist Portrait

Here's a picture of my wife shot with a Nikkon Nikkor AI-S 105mm F/1.8 at F/1.8 and a Sony A7 body that she gave me as a birthday present to use with my classic lenses. This was shot right after the sunset. I used one radio triggered flash with a RoundFlash beauty dish modifier. In the background you can see a narrow strait of the Baltic Sea.

C&C welcome and appreciated!

Very nice shot

Superb shot Mika!

I would have liked a bit more ambient probably, otherwise a nice shot. :)

It actually had more ambient. I took it down in post for this edit. :)

Looks good. Well lit. I would like to see all of the hair and more of the left shoulder. Feels like it was cropped to leave something out. Otherwise, great image.

Thank you! It's original composition from the camera, not cropped in post. I quite like tight portraits myself. The shoulder is left out just because otherwise the model would need to be close to center of the picture. So just a result from shooting tight.
