Happy New Years, friends! One last 20 minute portrait to close out the year... and yes, it's a non-alcoholic beverage in the glass.
Tarah is the legendary music bingo host (among many other things at ) and every couple weeks she puts together a stellar outfit for the theme of the night, and I like to play a fun game of "what shoot concept can I come up with and set up for in about 20 minutes?"
Because that's about how much time I have from when she shows up and I get to see her outfit, to when music bingo starts in the tap house below my studio space.
I made the background out of a roll of bubble wrap and some clear packing tape, suspended from a pair of c-stands.
A pair of AD200's with yellow & blue gels provide the bottom light, and an AD600 with a pink gel from overhead and behind to light the top.
Key light is an AD600 in a 4' octa, boomed overhead.
Quick little bit of styling in Photoshop, and bingo bango.
Fun.
HAPPY NEW YEARS!
May your 2026 be absolutely incredible and filled with health, wealth & happiness.
