Grey backgrounds are good for girls.

I prefer grey backgrounds for photographing girls in the studio.


This is Raye, from NYC.
She's wicked fun, and reminds me of a songbird.


This was shot with a Mamiya645, digital back.
150mm Mamiya lens.
ISO 50.
1/60th at f13

I lit her combining hard and soft light (beauty dish main and softbox fill).
Before I came to school I was not into studio shots at all...not at all all all.
And now, they can be so much fun! Also, it's way too cold and icy to go outside and shoot...ha!
