This shot was an outtake from an awards poster of Aaron Duran and Scott Dally for Geek in the City Radio.

We took this shot in one of the production rooms at CBS radio before they sold the company into unpleasantness.

I used an Alienbees strobe shooting into a Westcott 28" Apollo. I placed the light to camera left and slightly behind Aaron, so I could feather the light onto his face, and keep most of the shadow on the opposite side.

This shot was set up with a black background in a living room area at a long stay hotel.

With this shot I used an Alienbees abr800 ring flash shot into a Westcott 60" bounce umbrella.

The light was slightly above and to camera right. I focused the light on to Bobby's eye and let the light feather onto Kylene.
