Todd, could you include a photo of your setup? Thanks. I think your lighting is absolutely perfect in this one. #4471991Donna L. Jones July 04, 2007
Hi Todd, Your photo is what I am striving to achieve in children's photography! Can you tell me how far in front of the black background you had the girls. My space is limited but I am ready to purchase new lighting and am thinking of trying to copy your set up since it obviously works beautifully!Can you tell us the brand of light box you prefer? Thanks for the help! Donna J #4472134Todd Morrison July 04, 2007
Hi Rich,I am sorry, I cannot send a pic of my setup, I sold my studio and only work on location now.
Donna, the softbox I used is a Photoflex octodome, the 6' model, but be forewarned it is very big..
The subjects were about 4 feet from the background but because my light was not pointed at the background, I was able to get good falloff.

Love this capture! I love your children photography. Your pictures are beautiful and very natural! Thanks for sharing. #5023820Todd Morrison November 03, 2007
Thanks Cynthia!I am glad you like the children photos, using the one light and reflector helps to keep a natural non-strobe look.

I'd forgotten about this Todd, but so I have this right, 6'Octobox in front facing the subjects, just out of the way of the lens with diffuser in place & reflector to the side but very close, just out of frame right?Let's see: Subject
Octobox
Reflector
Camera
I hope this comes out right, so looking straight though from lens to subject.
The lighting is so perfect that I want to get this. If this doesn't get it right would you mind emailing me or Commenting on my most recent blog entry so we can further detail this?
Thanks Todd
Rich
