Brides and Beauty Light

So a MUA friend of mine wanted to get some bridal type shots, and I wanted to try out my photographer friend's beauty light AKA ring flash....so....we coordinated and did a shoot.

Here are the results. 

After the beauty part, my friend Natini and I did a quickie shoot as well:

I kinda dig the beauty light and it's hazy glow around the subjects..but I dunno if I'd want to use it too often.  Besides that thing is HEAVY!!! oh my goodness, I had to put the camera down every few minutes.  My biceps/triceps were getting sore!
