Studio Fitness Shoot: Justin Walls

I did a second fitness shoot with Justin Walls, this time we shot in the studio.  I used two lights, a five foot octobank softbox camera left, slightly in front of the subject and feathered slightly toward the camera and a seven inch gridded reflector camera right and back behind the subject.  This added separation from the background on the side opposite the main (key) light.  Here are a few selections from the shoot.  Would love to hear your thoughts.

Fitness Shoot: Justin Walls

Yesterday, several of us got together to do a fitness shoot, on location, for Justin Walls.  My friend, Steve Wampler, assisted and collaborated with me on ideas.  Fitness model, Ashley Elgie, provided art direction and additional assisting.  

The sweat is real.  Even though we got there right around sunrise, it was hot and even I was drenched in sweat before it was over.  A big thanks to the team for getting up early and braving the heat and ravenous mosquitos.  We had a great time and produced some fun images for Justin's portfolio.  

Would love to hear your thoughts on the images.
