This is a shot I like from a recent shoot. The bokeh of the lens keeps the background a little softer (this was shot with a Sigma ART f/1.8 lens on a Canon 6D). For these types of shots I always prefer converting to black & white (I actually often like black & white better) since it becomes more timeless and the colors are not as distracting from the shape.

This is Marion, who came by my studio almost a week ago. We used mostly a simple square softbox, and a gridded flashhead for the hair now and then.

This is one of my favorite pictures of her.

Also a photo of a shoot some time ago, this time postprocessed using Nik’s free effects filters (for Lightroom & Photoshop, amongst others). Thanks to Chanelle for posing.

Lying down

This is Deirdre, lying on what appears to be a wooden floor perhaps, but in reality this was one of Savage’s Floor Drops, named ‘Worn Planks Floor’. This carpet-like printed floor looks a little fake in real life, but in pictures it’s quite good. The only downside might be that you’d miss a bit of directional specular lighting at the edges, but if you have no idea what I’m talking about, then good! 😉

This was also the first time that I took out a ladder and climbed up high to get that high vantage point. It does help, although it looks a bit unsafe perhaps from the model’s side. The higher point also helped to prevent me using a lower focal length, since higher focal lengths like 85 or more are more pleasing to the eye.

Things went ok, no limbs were broken and this image is the result.

Here’s another one from Kelly from a short while back, sitting on an ancient shaky step stool. A single light was used, as you can see from the shadow.
