New images Christianne

Today some images from the workshop we did last week with Christianne.

One of the things I find very important during a session is the way you think ahead. So often you see images that have everything, great light, good model, nice location etc. but they miss one thing and that’s the way it fits together. With some careful planning you can make a mediocre shot a lot better by changing just a few slight things. Take for example the following shots, it’s nothing special lighting wise, but the combination of clothing and the background makes the image work for me.

And the final new model for this series is Gwen.
Gwendolyne will also be doing both the fashion and glamour workshops.
Again some images might be considered not safe for work, although (again) I think they are 🙂

Nadine vs the Mannequin

/12 Comments/in /by

Some time ago I mentioned on the blog that I had been shopping for a new model, well today you’re gonna meet Him/It. In our studio we have called him “Henkie” and today it’s the first time he is shared with you the readers…. well ok now let’s get serious.

During the advanced workshops it’s always a challenge for me to come up with something that is different from what you will find in other workshops, this often means that I will think more themed wise or add a lot of motion, dance, movement, jumps to the shots, but sometimes I will go one step further, as I did with this workshop with Nadine. Nadine is without a doubt the model with the most extreme styling and ideas I know, working with her we always call a “party” because it’s fun and full of surprises. When I told Nadine about our “new model” she was immediately full of ideas, and we decided to use one of the ideas for this workshop, and yes if you read it correctly there are more ideas… 🙂

5D MKIII

There has been a lot of speculations and rumors but yesterday it was finally announced the Canon 5DMKIII.
For me the 5DMKII was a game changer due to the video options, there were a lot of limitations at start but Canon released some firmware fixes and the video rocked, only real problem for me is the fact that when you change to record mode the HDMI output switched to SD output, but I can live with that for now….
Today on the blog the specs and my opinion, it’s just a fun blog post but feel free to add your thoughts.

By the way you can pre-order the camera here : B&H or here (use these links and support the blog)
