I love the expressions on Wil’s and Olivia’s faces. I also find the red background with the chain link fence really makes this photo pop. This photo was taken between photographing the models. Wil is a photographer who was also shooting and Olivia was the make-up artist for the photo shoot. This was taken in the studio with Alien Bees.

Many of the models that I have had the pleasure of photographing over the past year here in the Cayman Islands had their makeup professionally done by Olivia. Olivia was kind enough to allow herself to be photographed at the end of this photo shoot.

With the Miss Universe pageant yesterday evening, I thought it would be fitting to post a photo of Miss Cayman whom I had the pleasure of photographing early this year. It was an absolutely wonderful photo shoot with my good friend and fellow photographer, Paul Aiken. The model was Nicosia (Miss Cayman). The shoot included an Alienbee 1600 in an Octabox camera left, an Alienbee 800 in a softbox camera right and a SB800 to the right and behind Nicosia. They were shot with the my Canon 5D MK II and 85mm f /1.2L II using Pocket Wizards.
