High Key

ISO: 400  f/8.0  SS: 1/250

Learning high key with the new studio equipment!  Casey was trying to set up for a basketball photo and asked Kenzie and I to model for her.  We realized we could make microphones out of coffee mugs, but anyway!  We learned that I'm too white to even take a picture on the lowest setting with a large softbox. But basically, we spent an hour trying to set up a picture for a bunch of black guys with two white girls.  It was incredibly difficult, but we eventually figured that if we just flashed them at the lowest power, considering I was horribly over exposed, it should've been decent for all of them. We used two lights against the background to create a perfectly white background.  I don't actually know how the photo turned out later, but I learned it's incredibly easy to do high key photos!
