0.000 HBDShooting with Desne from day in to night
On a photoshoot I find that I end up with quite a lot of images, all perfectly acceptable but end up posting only a few with the result that a lot of images end up on a hard drive or somewhere in the "cloud" never to be seen by anyone. I'm not sure it's possible for images to gather dust on the shelves of a hard drive but you may get my meaning. With that in mind I decided to post a few more images of our photoshoot with Desne Alderson. She's only an amateur, part time model but it gives me a chance to get out and practice lighting and Desne gets a whole bunch of images to post on her social media. Win, win! ***Feeling Green*** On this shoot, I was trying out for the first time a couple of cheap Neewer 660 RGB LED lights. I placed one behind Desne on a light stand with the other at the front and high on the right (or Desne's left). I found that the lights looked great for lighting the smoke but that the white light wasn't as bright as I'd like for the key lighting. Note to self: Mix this with strobes next time!  ***Floral dresses and tattoos*** One of the things I struggle with when shooting models is the model often asking me what should they bring to wear. My first thought is "birthday suit" but then follows a conversation about flowing dresses and other outfits. I usually end up going with the flow although in this case I'm not sure tattoos and a floral pattern work well together!  ***Messing with the RGB*** Having a couple of RGB lights I was wary of mixing red and blue. I always thought that colour gels on white flashguns looked better and more defined but the technology seems to have come a long way and this shot works for me!  ***Climbing*** One of the advantages of LED lights is being able to see the effects of light instantly. This shot would have taken me ages to set up with a flashgun!  ***In a world that is ugly choose to be beautiful*** That's what the graffiti said on the walls behind Desne. She wanted a shot in front of this graff but I seemed to have failed to record it haha.  ***About me:*** I usually specialise in shooting lightpainting images but occasionally dabble in urbex and artistic model photography. I'm always on the lookout for someone to collaborate with; please don't hesitate to get in touch if you'd like to create art. <left>***Social Media*** **https://www.facebook.com/fastchrisuk** **https://www.flickr.com/photos/fastchris/**
