We looked at the work of photographer, Joey L. He's a 22 year-old, Canadian, based in NYC.
check out his Holy Men Portraits:

He has at least 2 sources of light (other than the sun) on his subjects, generated with lighting kits, flash/flashes and/or reflector dishes. Notices the striking light in the subjects' eyes of the Holy Men, that's the light source reflecting off their pupils!
What's in Joey L.'s camera bag?

(out of our budget, but doesn't mean we still can't create excellent photos!)
clients include National Geographic:

Joey L. refrains from documentary photography, and would rather put his camera down and watch a tribal dance, than photograph it. Also, he is going for a fantasy look in his photos, I learned this from a video posted on his web-site:
Joey L. started off doing band photography and portraits at a very young age. At age 15, started entering photography competitions in DPChallenge using a point-and-shoot digital camera. After his photos starting earning recognition & prizes, he began producing educational DVDs for aspiring photographers. Taking band portraits of whatever band, no matter how well-known or not earned him and the bands he photographed recognition, leading him to photograph main-stream bands.
