Hello.
This question should be a softball for most of you guy's, but I sure could use an answer.
My beautiful wife has been training for several months to compete in a bodybuilding "figure" competition. Weekly she needs to have progress photo's taken to share with her trainer and nutritionist. The point is to detail any changes in her body and highlight for them areas that will need attention.
I am charged with taking those shots and, so far, do not think I am lighting her correctly to show the details best. Her abs and arms are coming in fantastic. Ideally, each set-up should be the exact same week to week in order to best illustrate the progress.
Somehow, I just hate to back her up against a living room wall and blast her with a camera mounted flash. As much as I would love to try my hand at making these glamour shots, the actual purpose is almost like...(gulp) medical/anatomical photography
So the question: How best to set this up week to week? Does outdoor light provide better details than flash or tungston?
My equipment consists of:
Canon 30D
Canon 24-70 2.8L
Canon 430 EX Speedlight
2 white umbrella's,
2 light stands with umbrella/flash adaptors
1 tripod
I am not opposed to purchasing some additional tools if necessary.
Thanks in advance for any lighting/position ideas.
