Leahy Christmas Card 2008

Lighting is not my expertise. I was happy, for about the first time, to have a lighting style I was after, and actually pull it off. This is two strobes on stands, #1 is open and bounced off my high ceiling, #2 is through an umbrella fired from low-right of subjects. I had to paste in the fire from a second shot, because it was too dark from being blocked by the subjects. Bokeh is Photoshop. The boys were squirrelly, I only got about 5 shots in total. About an hour of set-up and planning because I knew I wouldn't have a long window. Grandpa Pat's chair!
