Dramatic Portrait 

Trying out some new lights with a beautiful young princess and Sting from Lord Of The Rings.  And a sword from the Dark Ages.

Using four and sometimes three lights.  

• Four foot Octabox with grid to camera left.
• 63" Umbrella just behind and right of camera with Strobpro 600 (strobepro.com)
• 12"x 55" Softbox with grid rim light camera right pointing at subjects shoulder and hair
• Small strobe with snoot pointing at backdrop.

I honestly may have been able to get something similar with fewer lights but love that I was able to do this way.

A bit of editing in Lightroom and Photoshop.
