Very nice as usual!
How are you placing your lights?
The pupil seems open, despite the highlight

Thank you! The strobe is turned down to lowest power and is shining from my left shoulder. The continuous light is low and to the right, dirscted at the backdrop only so as to soften any shadow that would come from the strobe. The hanging sheet is only 6-12" behind the subject's head, so it could easily pick up a harsh shadow. I guess Pippa's pupils show the ambient light of our kitchen, and don't have time to react to the strobe. The continuous light doesn't shine on her face at all.Originally Posted by Tin Can

Great portraits shown here people. Here's one I took of my son in 2005 while on vacation in Fontaine de Vacluse. He's 21 now, but this one somehow captures his essence better than any of the other (probably) hundreds I've made of him over the years. This was with my Minolta XD-11 and 50mm f1.4 Rokkor lens. I think it was shot on Ektachrome and then the transparency digitized with my Nikon D7100.
