Purple Haze
January 11, 2021
I shot this on a whim, but ended up liking the results!
This is four lights. An optical snoot with a spotted globe gobo provides the pattern. There is a gridded blue fill light (reflector) to color the shadows on the face blue, a purple-gelled light in 33" silver umbrella camera right and behind to add a kiss of light to the back of the hat and shoulders, and a purple light on a black seamless backdrop.

Amazing.
Do you process your image yourself or take external help. Thanks.
I process them myself using Lightroom and Photoshop.
great
great capture
Thank you!
Light is beautiful, model and make-up is stunning, the mix of flowing stripes and "straight" dots is perfect. Lovely image.
Thanks so much! Really appreciate your kind words. :)
Very nice. It's the gobo effect that really makes this interesting.
Thanks! Agreed entirely. I also took some shots with other gobos, and it really changes the look of the whole image.
Congratulations!
Thank you, Hector!
This has such a timeless look!
