Some mafia noir

Yarik, a long ime friend wanted some mafia noir pics. He came by the studio in his pimpin coat and was ready to get some results.

We used for light to achive this dramatic light. One bare reflector was placed directly begind him to create that outline that separates him from the dark BG. I also found out that it is important to create more space for th emodel to move. We shot at a 2000sq feet set and placed the lights almost in the corners. We flagged the lights to avoid the flare and that created some ample room for our model to walk around and act tough :)
