The Photographer

This shot of my photographer friend John was inspired by Dan Winters’ portrait of David Fahey. My goal with this photo was to replicate the lighting in the inspiration image.

Lit with three lights: Key light in a reflector with a beauty dish sock gaff taped to the front; background light with a 30 degree grid; and a large white umbrella for fill. I used a piece of black poster board to flag the key light and create the hard shadow on the camera right side of his face. Edited in Affinity Photo.
