Student Voice Photoshoot with a novice Bikini competitor.

The prompt: Photograph a bikini competitor.  

I had certain ideas in my head about how I wanted to portray the subject.  I didn't want to make the normal picture people think of when they hear 'bikini competitor' or 'fitness model'.  I wanted to make something that made the subject beautiful in addition to having a subtle descriptor telling a story in the image.  

Here you can see I had a simple one-light setup.  My 5' profoto Octa-bank on camera left and a flag on the right side to reduce light bounce from the white wall next to her.
