Anny - Fantasy Warrior

This set left me breathless. I didn’t think anyone would come close to topping her friend’s (Sarah IP), Elf Warrior set, but now I can’t say which I like best.

I used 2 GVM led lights, one with a 42 in Octagonal soft box for the main light, front left and the other with a 14x63 in strip box to fill, side left. Then I added 2 GVM RGB led light on both rear sides to light the smoke. My Canon EOS R was used with a Canon 85mm F1.8 lens. My settings were set at 1/100 sec, f/1.8, ISO 100.
