Another one from the indoor shoot last Tuesday. I love the relaxed feeling this photograph radiates.

Here are two things that I don’t do often – using natural light and a home scene.
The light was not particulary bright anymore – thanks to Canon 6D’s excellent ISO properties which still catches enough light. The lens was Canon’s 50/1.4.
The photo was taken in her bedroom and hardly postprocessed except for the obvious black & white conversion. It fits the girl’s character, it was much fun to try this as a change to the controlled studio environment!

I had a visit from Jessica again, and along with her came Simone, from a make-up company in Huizen, Face Two Face. I went for a lighting setup that I had never tried before; a clamshell basis, with a beautydish at the top, and a softbox lying at the floor.
At the sides, at around 45 degrees behind her, there were two striplights to get some rim lighting. All in all this gives an almost high-key effect.

This one was made seconds before we got sent away for being too close to the wildlife. The cows didn’t seem to mind. Would you? 😉

Here’s a shot that was taken at dusk, with a Jinbei DC-1200 standing about 20 meters from Annemiek. There was still some ambient light, but not much, resulting in this contrasting look. The tree was standing right at the waterside, which is hidden in the blacks in this photograph.

Here is another one from the shoot with Annemiek at dusk. There was a Jinbei Discovery 1200Ws about 5 meters to her right, as you might notice from the hard shadows. The 1200Ws was not at full power though, that would be way too much.
Not too long after that we were asked to leave, since we were a bit too far from the walking path. 🙂
