Yes, Ben has a fine studio, much of which was built by his own hands to his own design. He also has all the professional gear you'd ever want. What makes his photos consistently superb and so marketable is that he has learned how to "see" light and manipulate it to his liking.

I suspect "Titus" could create a good portrait using just a kerosene lantern and a Brownie Hawkeye camera.

Another beauty, Ben. Is this really outdoors? In other words, if that's not a backdrop, pretty soon you're not going to get to use it for a while in Indiana! If it is a backdrop, you'll probably have one made for each season.

Bruce,

Thanks for the kind words, and yes this set is really outdoors. Everything you see is "real" including the trees in the window. I've had several people think it is painted because it is so pretty, but I've done nothing to it at all. The lighting in this spot might be a little flat but I find it acceptable, so all I do is pose 'em and shoot 'em! WYSIWYG.

Fall is upon us so I have about two to three more weeks of shooting in my outdoor studio until I'm done for the year.

lighting, etc is beautiful.
IMO the model and window are pretty low in the frame
