indoor photo session test

i have some very fun friends coming in from chicago tomorrow and we will be doing a little photo session.   now, i mostly do outdoor photography because i don't have professional lighting or lovely backdrops (unless we go to my office, but i can't really use that for personal use).   the weather has been pretty cold and rainy, so i figured i should prepare for some indoor shots.  after looking around the house, i have an old spotlight from pottery barn and my lovely window curtains from target that i think might just do the trick.  test image above.

o and you might be wondering about "the monster's" tie.  we cut it out of paper and clipped it on especially for this shoot.  what a good sport he his.
