The goal was to create a portrait using existing light. Reflectors yes. Strobes or flash no. To make it interesting I handed a polar bear costume to model and fellow student Jessica Yager. Then for further eccentricities, I handed her metal shears. Thus, upon a roof in Pioneer Square under cloudy skies with the use of one reflector, the portrait transformed into a crackhead on the loose in the city.
