That's better, a little participation now.
Marvin: Great shot, well done.
You mentioned the type of lights you use. I think that is very important too. I chose constant photo lights rather than strobes and they do work pretty well for providing a nice soft light on the subject. I use a single light and reflect light back into the shadow areas with a large piece of white foam core board.
Beth: That Mike, he's a "mover" in Tulsa for sure! I like to imagine him wandering the city with his camera and women just "fall" into his lens.
