Here is a picture of our little guy Cam! I am sure that he is going to thank us when he is older after this photo shoot.
The setup was simple. Utilized a black background and a soft little white bear skin rug. I utilized my canon 580 EXII flash mounted onto the camera. I bounced the flash into a white reflector panel over my left shoulder. Direct flash will give you serious shadows. By doing this it almost creates the same effect as using a large to medium soft box. Could you light up a room with a flash light? No. Turn the flash light around and shine it at the white wall behind you and see what happens.
It is as simple as that.
