Wow, I have been Busy

I have been out taking a plethora of pictures. I have taken photo shoots. Some of these have been NSFW so I will only post shots that can be seen on this site. Within the span of 2 days I took part in 3 photoshoots with three beautiful ladies. The first was with the amazing Kate Snig. with the theme of Boudoir bodyscapes.

Following the shoot with Kate, the next day I met with a beautiful woman named Jessica who was brave enough to experiment with me using some backdrops. We managed to get some really cool shots. One series with a cool winter scene backdrop, another with an alley brick wall. We even added a little graffiti to the backdrop in post to give it some additional realism.

My last shoot of the weekend was with another spectacular model. Starla dressed up or should I say dressed down for some nude bodyscapes and wet shower scenes. The theme…Slippery when wet. Using a spritzer bottle and some interesting setups we were able to mimic a shower scene without even being in a shower.

All in all it was a very busy weekend. Busy but very enjoyable.

Motion and Flow

Recently I took part in a photo session with a lovely model named Karolina. In this shoot we played with fabrics and motion as well as a portion of the shoot where she got down and dirty in playing with flour. The effects under both portions of the shoot were spectacular, but I will let you decide for yourself.

She went on to do the flour shoot and some of those effects were amazing. See for yourself.

Danica – Beautiful Devil

Conducted another wonderful photoshoot with a new model. Although not overly familiar with fashion modelling she is very adept at COSPLAY. This allowed her to excel as a model in both fashion and COSPLAY. I have a number of shots below of her in the various outfits. Suffice it to say she is a natural.

Lighting Techiques

I recently attended a workshop on lighting where we worked on a number of techniques to bring out the pictures to their max. Commencing with a simple one light setup we began with the use of a beauty dish above the model and a reflector below. This provided us with catch-lights in our model’s eyes in two places (upper and lower eye). A sample is here with our Model Katlyn.

The Second setup was similar but we used two Soft Boxes in an horizontal layout. Here the catch-light appeared in two places again however the angle was horizontal this time.

Next we tried some shots with back-lighting. This was done with a strobe and a blue gel cover to give a blue colour to the image.

Here is a sample of an image created this way with our model Katlyn.
