Spaghetti with meatballs
Spaghetti with meatballs
KayLee, a model I have worked with before, and I headed to an Italian restaurant to do a spaghetti and meatballs portrait. When we got there, at about 11am, the table next to the one with the map of Italy over it was taken up by three cops. I talked to them and reassured them that they would not be part of the picture 
KayLee came to me whispering if she was going to be arrested for taking a pic next to a glass of wine, as she is under 21. I reassured her that the cops where busy with their own meatballs and they could clearly see that the wine was just a prop. With all that out of the way I ordered this mega spaghetti plate for her and set up the lights.
Lighting: two SB800 flashes. One, the key light, set to camera right on a stand, with a 32 in thru umbrella. This light was about 4 feet above her and feathered. One with a 20 degree grid set 3 ft over the table and pointing down on a Nano stand with a C-stand arm attached to it. I was afraid to set up a full C-stand in this tiny place.
D700 camera with 70-200mm lens and Pocket Wizards controlling the flashes manually.
