Variety Magazine, the Power of Women LA Portfolio. Five covers. Five outstanding Hollywood women. By seniority we have to start with Michelle Pfeiffer, and in all fairness, she was the first of our five subjects that we photographed. We also have to start with one of the coolest, most knowledgable and hard working assistants in Los Angeles, @bnickleberry, who acted like a human light stand for four of our five shoots. 7” Profoto reflector covered win tough spun hand held over the camera as the main with two @elinchrom_ltd octobanks (with baffles) as fill behind me (at far left). Each of our five talent were photographed against black, against, white and against red. Lurking in the background? @iamkevingray. Crushing all five productions and mixing up the catering? Niclo! @photogshmotog. The glam squad? Seasoned professionals who know what they’re doing and bring a lot of experience and insight to the shoot and all of whom I’ve known and worked with for years. Hair by @richardmarin. MakeUp by @brigittemakeup. Styling by @samanthamcmillen_stylist. BTS by @hanaasano. A thousand thank yous to @quixotestudios. #michellepfeiffer @profotousa @hasselblad_official

Love tone on tone! For Variety Magazine’s Power of Women Portfolio we photographed each subject in white on white, in black on black and in red on red. And…we wanted a consistent light for our subjects that was simultaneously hard and soft. So…the @profotousa 7” reflector covered in tough spun was hand held over the camera as the main, with two @elinchrom_ltd Octobanks with baffles as soft fill (not pictured) behind me. Had to shoot the Canon to keep up with Priyanka Chopra's many moves. Killer light holding by @iamkevingray. Killer background moving by @zachfernandez. Killer production by @photogshmotog. Niclo? Killer sweats by @cristinaehrlich. Killer locks by @chadwoodhair. Killer lips by @sabrinabmakeup. @priyankachopra @variety #priyankachopra @canonusa @profotousa
