Very much unlike the Twin Peaks counterpart, this is Belinda resting on a log. 😉

annemiek, color grading, dusk

Here is a photograph I took last April, in a nature reserve near Rhenen. The sun was setting but the sky still bright. A 1200Ws flash firing at the back of Annemiek, a 600Ws in front, giving a nice balance between ambient & artificial light.

This is from a shoot in a small piece of forest a week ago with Belinda.

Actually she is sitting quite high up from the ground, and it took some balancing to avoid falling out of the tree.

Here’s one from Lucy the other day which took a little more work. My attic is not small, but not that big. 😉 I like the edgy look though, beauty and danger.

This one from Renilde was made will dangling above her, with 2 striplights on either side. I’m still not sure whether this picture works better when shown in landscape, but at least this way you first notice her eyes. 😉

color grading, outdoor, siebrecht

Here is one from Siebrecht, which was shot in Hilversum with the sun quickly going down. Using the sun as a backlight is mostly a lot nicer than using it as your main light.

In front was a Discovery DC600 with not much more than some barndoors.

On a Hot Summer Day

color grading, renilde, shadow, wind

I found that in the summer time, shooting in my studio in the attic is less than ideal. It just gets a bit too warm mostly, even with the Dutch weather, which isn’t always compliant with the connotation of the word ‘summer’. 😉

Still, we had set a date some time ago, and the weather wasn’t that hot around that day, so Renilde and I went ahead anyway. Hope you like it.
