Used a tri-pod with strobe and wink light. Also used a diffuser on the wink light.
Ultimately the wink light looked better with the diffuser on it. Still picked up flash reflection in his glasses. I asked Howard how to avoid that and looked slightly down with eyes looking up towards me. I will remember that for the future as I know I will have subjects wearing glasses.
I failed to write down my settings however and I shot these two weeks ago.
I am pretty sure I adjusted my white balance to fluorescent lighting and ISO at 400. I can only guess that I was in the 125-250 range? But maybe lower to around 60 with an fstop of around 5.6

I was able to set up before Rene arrived. I even shot a few faculty members that were passing by.
I used the tripod for the seated window shots.
White balance was mixed, I tried sunlight and fluorescent settings....
Shutter speed of 60, fstop/4.3 & 5.6
On the stair stoop in the mansion I used the wink light with a diffuser. Getting the right light was hard. Shutter was about 125 with an over exposure of .5, I was getting dark images before this.
Outside was better using white balance of direct sunlight and shutter to around 400, fstop 5.6

Wonderful subject, great to work with. Used both tripod for indoor shots and wink light with diffuser. Indoor, shutter speed 60 with an fstop 4.5,5.6
Outside no tripod or wink. My shutter was between 500 and 1250 depending on the position of the sun and subject. The sun was pretty harsh for 11:15am. I realized at the time I was getting the butterfly effect. I hoped later they wouldn't be too much of a distraction in the shot... I made sure to change my white balance a little more consistent this time. It was becoming more of a natural ritual now....
