Gamal was the winner of our facebook fan page portrait contest and we planned our photoshoot to take place at the 100 Black Men of Atlanta office in downtown Atlanta. As we started to warm up for the shoot I noticed the frosted glass wall behind Gamal, I knew that it would make a great background. After setting up the lights and doing a couple test exposures, I felt that something was missing. What could it be? That’s when I had an “aha” moment; I added a blue gelled flash to the other side of the frosted glass wall. My thinking on this was that it would add a nice accent light to outline Gamal and it would add some separation between Gamal and the background.

Here is the final result after bringing all the elements together:

100 Black Men of Atlanta - Gamal Codner Portrait

As a small touch I, I brought the camera down a little so that I could get the reflection of Gamal’s fingertips on the table.
