Crystal fashion fun

These images are from a studio shoot with UK model Crystal. I was in the Somerset area and had a model booked who unfortunately then had to cancel at short notice due to illness. Fortunately the studio owner recommend I contact Crystal. She was available and as it was very short notice we didn’t have time to plan a theme for the shoot. We decided to go with a fun theme, hence the title Crystal fashion fun. The Images were all shot at Rawpics Studio

Crystal was great to work with and we had some good fun creating a range of different looks, using different light set ups.

As you can see from the images below

So thanks to Crystal for standing in and creating some good strong images.

Natalia and a Curve (NSFW)

These image are from a studio session with Natalia. The studio has a couple of large curves, so for this set we use just the one of the curves. Lighting was a rectangular strip soft box set off the the right hand side of the model and curve. This controlled the light and kept in focused on the model without spilling out onto the background too much.

During a visit to my area by the London based model Yoo Yoo. I arranged to work with the Yohoi in my local studio in Cleckheaton. We created a range of fashion and portrait images using a mixture of studio flash and natural light. I also used some mirrors to create some interesting wall patterns with an arri constant light.

Carla – Bandana

I was working with Carla in a local studio and wanted to create some fashion images using a bandana that Carla had brought along with her. The decision on styling was to use the cream blouse with the bandana. I chose to light the set with a single studio flash head fitted with a gridded soft box. I placed this off the wall to the right hand side of the model. Which created a pool of light on the blouse and face with a slight spill onto the wall behind her.

Elena Mirror (NSFW)

The choose of the title for this set of images “Elena Mirror” was easy as they were all shot using a large mirror. They feature the Model Elena aka Nausicaa. Who I worked with at the Boardroom studios in Derby.

The lighting chosen for these images was a single studio flash fitted with a soft box to left hand-side of the model. So that there were no light spill from the flash appearing in the mirrors

A few images from a walk-about shoot in Birmingham city center. Featuring Hamish WJ Scott a professional dancer and model from Birmingham. I have worked with Hamish a number of times in the past and you can see some of my dance images featuring him in my Dance Portfolio.

The styling theme for the shoot was a Peaky Blinder look which suited the locations we were shooting in very well. However with the temperatures in the high twenties that day. The choice of wearing a heavy jacket, cap and a tweed suite was not the easiest of tasks for the Hamish.

Nausicaa – fishnets and leather

A chance came up to work with Nausicaa at the Boardroom studio in Derby. A cool studio location to work in.

Elena aka Nausicaa is based in Central London so when I spotted that she was going to be in Derby, I arranged to work with her. We had a productive shoot and below are a set of images from the first setup.

The lighting set up I chose was a single constant light which I reflected back towards the model with three mirrors. Which gave interesting light pattern shadows behind the model.

As I was shooting in monochrome. The styling of this set Elena chose the fishnets and a black body to go with the leather jacket. Hence the title fishnets and leather.

Paisley pattern tights leg shapes (NSFW)

I have worked with Ivory Flame (Holly) a number of times in the past. She is a great creative model to work with. This set of images below were all shot at my studio, during a session with Holly. For the shoot I had purchased a pair of Paisley pattern tights. Which gave a nice texture to the legs. With Holly posing on the edge of a settee to give a base shape for Holly to work against. Which show off the Paisley pattern tights and her figure shape nicely. To light this set up I used a two lights. One a studio flash fitted with and striped soft box this was fitted grid to control the light direction. I also added an Arri constant light across the background. Which was focused to give a strip of light coming down across the background.

Natalia – Torn jeans

A session I called Torn jeans. These images are from a studio session with model Natalia. These are from the first set we shot with Natalia wearing her torn jeans and a white tee shirt. Love the energy and expression that she produced while we worked this setup.
