I did some white background shots with Stephanie for her portfolio. This shot in front of a 53" roll of white seamless. This was fairly easy to do and I like the results. Be sure to check out my blog for more info on how to get the most out of a small roll of seamless paper. Processing info: - Raw conversion in Lightroom. - Nik Color Efex Dynamic Skin Softener blended in Photoshop. - Nik Sharpener blended in Photoshop. - Curves adjustment in Photoshop. Strobist info: - Background: 2x SB-28 flagged flashes on either side of background firing toward opposite sides. Background was lit to about 1.5 stops over subjects. - Key: SB-28 fired into 60" reflective umbrella. - Fill: large white reflector. - Triggers: Cactus V.

One of my model friends, Stephanie, is getting into model management and asked me to do a group shot on a pure white background. Here is what I came up with. It was done on the cheap strobist style and only a single roll of 53" white seamless was used. Post processing was fairly minimal - layering and masking in Photoshop and some contrast adjustment with Curves. Strobist info: - Background: 2x SB-28 flagged flashes on either side of background firing toward opposite sides. Background was lit to about 1.5 stops over subjects. - Key: SB-28 fired into 60" reflective umbrella. - Fill: large white reflector. - Triggers: Cactus V.
