For composites, lighting has to match your background. As a photographer it's funny how differently you see the world in terms of light, quantity of light and quality of it. When you start creating composites in which you need to capture backgrounds it ads a whole new element in which to view your surrounding through. Thanks Angela for being patient and bending over backward, literally, to make a cool image. Strobist info: Photographed in my West Seattle Studio Einstein through 60" Softlighter boomed above, b800's through gridded striplights for rim lights on either side. www.nakean.com http://flic.kr/p/nU22LK

Beach Love

I was lucky enough to run acrross these models and few photographers photographing these two on the beach in Mexico. I, of course had my camera with me and they let me snap a few images. www.nakean.com http://flic.kr/p/kS86Do

Beach Wedding

A beautiful beach and an even more gorgeous couple sharing moments together just after tying the knot! Thanks to Daniel Nguyen for holding my 6 foot scrim on the seriously windy beach! Wouldn't have been able to get this shot without you! All natural light with aforementioned giant scrim to block the direct sunlight. http://flic.kr/p/fusyTW
