I wanted kind of an ethereal & soft feel to this shot, so I experimented a bit more with backlighting with the sun & bouncing light from two large white poster boards taped together. I also processed it a lot with gradients, filters, and blending modes n' stuff.

Sultry Siri

Another shot from my heashot shoot in the rain with Siri.
I had picked 3 different locations for my shoot with Siri, but my plans were foiled by a summer rainstorm. The light was quickly disappearing and there was only one covered spot in my location, so I had to make one kinda dull grey metallic background work for two different looks.
The only thing I could do was change the lighting. In this shot, I just used one strobe (580EX) shot through an umbrella really close to her face to create a nice soft, even light. I took away the second hair light strobe and used a really shallow DOF to make her hair almost disappear into the background. I wanted to the shot to be about her face and her eyes and her gorgeous skin.
I also love Siri's expression in this. She was so easy to direct and followed my strange direction cues really well. i think I told her to look mysterious, yet sexy, but secretive. Yeah... Not the best direction in the world, but she made it work :D

Smoldering Siri

Blessed with shooting another gorgeous model, lovely and talented Siri.
I had planned a really cool urban shoot in Yaletown, but just before we stepped out to shoot the rain started to come down, so I had to abandon my scouted locations, and opt for something covered and close.
For this shot, I had one foot holding the umbrella stand from falling onto my model, a light disc in my left hand bouncing light on the right side of her face, and somehow had to have enough finesse to hit the shutter button. Tricky stuff!
Strobist Info:
580EX shot through umbrella directly infront of Siri. 430EX with full CTO gel camera shot behind Siri, camera left. Silver bounce held (with my left hand :o) infront and below, slightly right of camera.
