Portrait Session with Brennan

The first half of the year has gone by pretty fast. Everyone gets busy and as usual things become priority and other things fall by the waist side. I hadn't seen my friend Brennan for a long time so when he called me up and asked to help him with filming something I was intrigued. I can't reveal all the details right now but I'll be sure to post something when the ideas have all come together!

While he was here he wanted to get some pictures done for his channel art. The timing of this was perfect because I had just received my Godox Octobox and was eager to test it out.

The octobox is really easy to set up, it's just like setting up an umbrella with a Velcro scrim on the front. As it's a little bit big, 120cm in diameter, I decided to use two flashes in the softbox for added power, mainly to achieve an even soft light on Brennan.

For those of you who are interested, here is the lighting diagram and my camera settings.

Here are my favourite images from the session.
