Photobin: Trinidad Beauties

Beauty Pageants Photography by Ryan Macalandag
Miss Trinidad Beauty Pageant 2008
Bohol, Philippines

Here are some of the photos from the Miss Trinidad shoot I did las Saturday. The ladies were still young and didn't have any experience with pageants yet but they were quite cooperative during the shoot.

Bravo also to their hair and make-up stylists - all from Trinidad also.









Technical Info:
Shot using a Nikon D80 with a Nikkor 50mm 1.8 lens.

Lighting Info: 1 Vivitar 283 at full-power bounced to a silver umbrella camera right and above, 1 SB24 left and behind subject to light "blue screen" background and act as kicker light. A huge sheet of white illustration board was placed in front and just slightly below the face of subject to act as fill light (and a flattering catchlight as well).

Background is a digitally made art through Photoshop.
