Purse (3 of 7)

Originally uploaded by EricHolsinger

My wife paid a friend to made some make-up pouches and purses for us to give as gifts this year. They looked so good, that when we got them, I set up an impromptu studio and took some isolated silhouette-type studio shots.

I used a gadget infinity trigger to fire my flash through an umbrella at 1/4 power or 1/8 power. I used a piece of foam core to help lighten up some of the dark spots. Then I cleaned up the backgrounds in Lightroom.

I put some of the best images on a disk for the woman who made the purses in case she would ever like to market her products.
