Aim and style of of portait - I tried to achived the glamourous head and shoulder portrait using hollwood lighting and a softbox with a spot gradient in the out of focus background.
Lighting Ratio - Main light, Softbox, F8 - Fill light, reflector F11, Background F16
Ratio - 1-3
Self Critique -
Terrible!
I did not achieve the image is was looking for at all.
I couldn't get the depth of field i was looking for to throw out the background enough to tell it was not calendars. I didn't not have enough time to swap over to tungsten for give a larger aperture to a smaller depth of field. I tried to move back and have a longer zoom but it wasn't enough.
I like the mona lisa feel but that is all.
