This set of images features the model Pippa Doll. They were taken at my studio just using natural window light. The main light was high key and was coming from behind the model and was flooding the area. I placed a couple of white reflectors either side of Pippa to reflect the light back to her figure. A really simple setup which gave good high key image results.

  • Model: PippaDoll
  • Lighting: High Key back lighting
  • Camera: EOS 5D Mark IV
  • Lens: EF70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM
  • Focal lenght: 125mm
  • Aperture: F2.8
  • Shutter speed: 1/40 sec
  • ISO: 100
  • Outfits: Men’s white shirt

The camera was set on a tripod as I was using a slow shutter speed, so it needed to be supported.

Processed in Photoshop with a slight white toning added to give a slightly warmer feel to the mood

I have worked with Pippa Doll a number of times as she is also a dancer and you can see some of the freeform shapes I caputred when working with her as a dancer by clicking on this link

I have worked with Ivory Flame (Holly) a number of times in the past, She is a great artist nude model, as the images show. This set of images were shot at my studio.

Lighting was a studio flash fitted with and striped softbox fitted grid plus an Arri contast light focused to give a strip of light coming down the background.

  • Aerialist: Em Theresa
  • Lighting: 3 x Studio flash fitted with soft boxes
  • Location: Natural Light Spaces
  • Model: Canon EOS 5D Mark IV, Lens: 24-70mm.
  • 1/100sec @ f /11.00. ISO100

To collaborate with Aerialists in order to capture their skills is a real challenge. Em Theresa the Aerialist featured in these images makes these poses look effortless and easy, but they are not.

It requires core strenght and concentration to hold these poses while hanging from the suspended silks several metres from the ground.

The biggest challenge for the photographer is to know when to capture the image, to show the artisty and skill that the aerialist is displaying as she holds the pose.

I have worked with model Elle Beth a number of times over the last few years. Elle Beth is a top full time model with lots experience and is good to work with as she is tall and also athletic and works hard to produce great images.

The location for the shoot was the Natural light studio at Weedon Bec. This studio has some great natural light, but also good studio lights if required,

The planning for this shoot was to do several different sets. Some using the natural light others using the studio lights. The location also has some long aerial silks, which we used for the first set. These certainly gave Elle a workout hanging and posing using them.

To give Elle a rest from the athletic posing she had been doing. We decided to use a simple leather harness top that Elle Beth had recently purchase as prop for somthing a bit different to the other sets. I want to create a bit of edgy tension in the shots so I have kept them monochrome.

The shots were all lit with a three-light set up. Starting with a large overhead softbox and then adding two gridded strip softboxes. These were set to each side of the model but slightly behind her to provide a rim light the her figure shape.

Slightly less symmetry in this one. A more relaxed feel and yet still with an edgy feel as Elle again engages with the viewer.

Elle Beth Symmetry

I liked the symmetry in this front on image there is also I feel a really feeling of tension in the image. This coming from Elle pose and look directly into the lens of the camera. Almost if the subject is awaiting permission to do something.
