Everything has conspired against me this year for my normal Valentines shots with Lil'Bit, but I did manage a few quick ones today. Light editing in LR and done. Enjoy

@Jeff15 thank you
@NS: Nikon Shooter she's more a Sour Patch kid.....with a little sour and sweet mixed together with a heavy helping of attitude on the side.

I guess so… but from the shots, I see only sweetness!

Adorable! I like how the red seat of the chair is tried into the scene. Did you use a solid black background?

Thank you!! The old chair is a multiuse prop. The seat is a plywood circle, with multiple covers. Pop out the plywood stretch a new a new cover, tape the bottom and replace. Makes it easy to match the theme.

This was a typical three light set. Key, 7' brolly with diffusion CR. Kicker was a 7" reflector w/10 degree grid CR rear. Fill 2x4 softbox with diffusion CL.

Key and fill were feathered to keep as much light as possible off the Black background. Dof and a difference in reflective reading gives me a nice solid black free of wrinkles.
