Senior Portraits are a lot of fun. Kids get to be who they want to be for a few hours showing off their hobbies or other interests and parents get great photos of their children at a major milestone in their lives. In this video I explain how I used two strobes to enhance the available light in this scene as well as how to get nice blurry backgrounds in your portraits. Keep Shooting!

Anyway thanks for posting this video!

Thanks for the video, great portrait! You mentioned that the sun although diffused by some overcast cloud was from above. Can you remember from what position or angle in relation to your subject......pe rhaps referenced via the clock positions? Also a small favor....would it be possible to perhaps include a set up diagram or graphic for future posts of this nature outlining the position of any natural light sources in addition artificial sources, any diffusion used and approx height?
Thanks again and keep up the great work that you post. You are certainly a welcomed credit to the photographic community!
Cheers

I think its perfect, thats why I put it up that way!
Very well then, its all in the eyes of the beholder :)
I have a difficult time over lighting my subject with too much strobe and really need to work on dialing down my Speedlight's output. What was the flash power that you used for the secondary, hair light side strobe? You didn't mention it.
Thanks-
