Another sports portrait I'm very happy with. I setup two cold lights, each one at about 45 degrees and three feet behind the subject. Front lighting was just the ambient room light. In front and left of camera was a large white reflector. At each side of the subject I set up a single black 2x3 piece of black foam board about head height just off camera to reduce light spill from the back lighting.
Image was taken, hand-held using a Canon EOS 7D with Canon EF 85mm f1.8 USM AF Lens (my favorite for portraits). Exposure was 1/60 @ f2.8 set at ISO 400. Image was adjusted using Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3.2 and Adobe Photoshop CS5. Hard to believe this is a nine year old boy. He looks like a high school kid.
