Booky-Man (Cheesy Titles are the best)

Hi everyone, so the studio shoot with Kyle was actually a sorta spin off or spontaneous shoot after planning this one. Kyle had a lot of street fashion kind of shoots before, but this time, we wanted a shoot with a classy vibe to it. We put together a little mood board, which included Peaky Blinders in it. As far as location, this is a book store that I frequented, and the bookstore owner kindly allowed us to use it for this shoot.

3 lights
-1 39" Deep octa camera right for main
-1 46" Softlighter camera left for fill
-1 speedlight barebulb on left back shelve for subtle background fill/mimicking ambient. As you can imagine, the real ambient light was florescence with a nice nasty green ish cast to it. So by adding a flash and bouncing it in the ceiling really helps.
