Our friends had an 80′s party tonight to celebrate a thirtieth birthday.  We decided to take some high-key galmor shots to help remember the event.  I broke out the white seamless paper and set up three flashes to achieve the almost completely blanked out background, a.k.a. high-key, photograph.  Two flashes were used to light the subjects, one high and camera right and one high and camera left.  Both flashes were equipped with a reflective umbrella and tilted down at forty five degrees to get complete coverage.  The third flash was behind the subjects at camera right.  It was only a few inches away from the background and aimed in such a way so the light was feathered across the background.  I did this to avoid a hot-spot from appearing on the seamless papear close to the where the flash head was on the right side of the frame.  To prevent any of the light from the background flash from getting on the subjects or into the camera lens, I used a gobo on it.  While not a perfect high-key photograph, I think it is not bad at all for a first attempt at this type of shoot.
