Headshot

I did a headshot for a friend of mine today who is trying out for a part at Disney this weekend. As far as a setup, it was very simple. We hung the black background, fired an SB800 through a Lastolite Diffuser from camera right at about 45*, and that was it. With a woman, I probably would have added an extra light to fill in the shadows, but when you are shooting a portrait of a man, you can get away with more shadows because of the shape of our faces. Here's the one he chose:
