Outdoor portraits, at night.

Last week, the boys had the pleasure to shoot Khlodia again, after almost one year. This time, we managed to creep out of the cold and comfy confines of a studio and brave the outdoors.

Upon reaching the penthouse, I was by the greeted by the breathtaking skyline of Ortigas, and thought of making the gorgeous city lights as my backdrop, faded into a creamy bokeh.

Beautiful model - check.

    Try the 2lightsetup or get an opposing lightsource to act as rim lights :D

    Will let you know which is better after I get my feet a little more wet. ;)
