After attending the off-camera lighting lecture from the Scott Robert Mentoring Program, our group got to work with a high fashion model, Ayumi, who lost her purse. She was so upset, she ran out of the middle of the shoot to find it before it was my turn to shoot. Ayumi eventually found it, and I directed her to think about the lost purse, pursuing to find it, and then feel relieved about finding it. (She was laughing in between since the direction was unexpected). Thanks to the model Ayumi Perry, fashion stylist and artistic director Monique Zhang, jewelry designer to Sally Bass and Jana Morgan, and my lovely assistant Renea for holding the flash as a spotlight who also runs Grandeur Photography in Sacramento. And of course thanks to SR and the whole crew including Jeremy and Zabrina (JeZa Photography) who organized the SF workshop.
For those curious about lighting, there's an overhead light above her face, and a flash in the back as a spotlight. This shot was inspired by JD Cooper (JD Cooper Photography) who was talking to my buddy Jeff about doing a shot at this location of the bar.

Hey, I remember being there when you were telling the Ayumi to show you each of these expressions by thinking about her purse. That was great, and the photos are awesome! =D
