When I first started photography, I not only started with film but also did nothing but outdoors. Shooting outdoors is not the easiest simply because the sun doesn’t care what you’re doing or where you’re at. There’s a lot of factors that we as professional photographers have to keep an eye on. First, we have to think of the weather, is it going to rain, is it going to be cloudy, is it blue skies and which direction is the sun going towards? There are other factors as well but you get the hint. This shot was done in a mansion outdoors in Los Angeles. Weather was perfect as it had blue skies and not a single cloud was intruding the sun. This was shot using a Canon 1DsMII, strobe lighting and was shot camera left. Also a medium softbox was used in this scenario. Model was BEAUTIFUL as you can see. ISO @ 100, f/6.4@125th, focal length 57mm.
