Bryanna Millis is an award-winning poet and mixed media artist who resides in Washington, DC. She recently contacted me to photograph a number of her pieces to display on her website, www.BryannaMillis.com.
I used studio lighting to capture the incredible detail of her work, which was done on muslin and paper products. The strobes I used were Alienbees 1600s, triggered with PocketWizard Plus III Transceivers. I shot with a Canon 5DIII and a Canon 24-70mm f/2.8LII.
Below are a number of our images, as posted on her site. Click thumbnails for big. It’s good stuff.8
