Earlier this week I had a chance to meet up with new model Steph and do a quick test shoot. We avoided the worst of the rain by shooting under the trees in the woods.
All pictures have a mix of ambient and Speedlite flash. For the shots in the woods the flash was bounced in to a parabolic silver umbrella. The last two images were shot in the garden of a friend and here I used a California sunbounce reflector and bounced the flash in to it. I needed to add a CTO gel to add a bit of warmth and the shoot stopped as the rain changed from the odd drop to a downpour.

I love to shoot in woods and rural settings, whenever I havent enough light and try and use my flash + softbox I just dont like the effect or results, these are nicely done. Im clearly not doing it right, so chase the good light and reflect what is there…thanks for sharing these
Heres an example
