AVANT-GARDE BEAUTY PORTRAITS
WITH LAURA DARK PHOTOGRAPHY
BACKDROP
Hey guys, it's Laura. I'm here today to shoot with my new BackgroundTown background. It is an 8x10 fleece backdrop called Cocoa Artistry Window 1. We just got it in, so I got my lights set up.

LIGHTING
I am using my Neewer Vision4 lights. These are 400 watt. I have the main light at half power, and on it I have a 24 inch beauty dish. On my boom, I have a second Neewer light that is at 25% power. That's going to be our backlight fill light for the backdrop.
CAMERA SETTINGS
So as we're getting ready to shoot here, I've got my Canon R, and we are set at 100 ISO and 125th of the second, F8. We are going to go ahead and bring our beautiful model Robin out, and we are going to shoot some frames here.
FINAL IMAGES
We're going to finish up our session here so you can see the finished images. We hope you enjoy them, and that they inspire you to create your own avant garde images. This backdrop, Cocoa Artistry Window 1, worked beautifully, and is perfect for conceptual sessions like this one.
