Okay, I know this isn't a senior photo blog, but I just had to post this one too. The dramatic lighting is because it was almost 7pm and the sun was low. I arranged her back to the sun to get the highlights on her hair and on the ivy. Then, I used a light reflector to bounce that warm light onto her face. I really like the results. I may have to have more evening photo shoots. The dramatic light is so much more interesting than shots taken mid-day.
