One Speedotron head with a 30° grid spot as the main light and another with a 20° aimed back at her legs on low power just to get a little detail in the dark areas.

Oh my god, Alli, she would shoot you for saying that. It's her hugest pet peeve.

Nah, it's ok... I've gotten used to it Thanx Brooks, cool pic!

don't get me wrong, but perhaps pants and tennis shoes could have "uglied her up" enough to distract from her playing abilities?
otherwise, i love the lighting effects.

Wow, I've never looked at her and saw Hilary Duff. I see it a tiny bit in this picture, but not until Alli pointed it out.
Chris, your comment confused me a little. I just want to stress that Vinita plays guitar very well.

i was just making a suggestion that if one didn't want people to assume she was just a model holding a guitar, maybe a little less leg would help. heheh
she is quite beautiful, and from the music i've heard of her band, she wails a good guitar.

As a guitar player myself I have a fetish for women with guitars. This picture is HOT!

I love this shot because she looks like a "live action" version of those big-eyed pin-ups that are all over the blogosphere!

Killer photo, Brooks. Love the spot lighting.

Thanks everyone. Alec, it's because of my lighting style that my friend Rudy often calls me Johnny Gridspot.

The "celebrity," not someone I shot.

Hmm you are more famous than she is to me, maybe it's an american thing, like americans don't know robbie williams. I am going to program mtv again. I will become a stranger to the world without that channel!
