A nod to an Australian photographer who has inspired me (Awesome photos)

He's an Aussie who shoots his daughter in some amazing sets and lighting. His name is Bill Gekas who I get to know a bit on FB through the Fstoppers site and is a fantastically creative photographer. I am truly humbled by this guy.

It is not easy on a kid to take part in such ventures, no matter how well it's explained.
The finest lighting imaginable, the finest thinking, like paintings. What a gift for him to have such knowledge and talent and creativity along with a gorgeous daughter for inspiration.

It's nice to see that he is only using 1 light (a fill card too? I have no idea). It just goes to show that the multiple light set-ups that many portrait photographers use is not only unnecessary but some times over kill.
