Heroes and villains first results

As you might or might not know I love movies and comics in my free time.
For some time we have been looking at someway to combine this with my photography and we have started a new series called “Heroes and Villains” in which I will photograph several “real” and “fantasy” characters. Now with “real” I mean characters based on movies and comics and with “fantasy” characters we create ourselves. (just to make some things clear).

As a big Batman fan the first character was an easy choice….
And during our recently broadcasted “Digital Classroom” we started the series with our model Poeka as the Joker and one other character.

Thanks to Nadine and Poeka for the clothing.

In the “digital classroom” we discuss several techniques in lighting, retouching, working with the model etc. and the fun part…. you can 100% participate via the online chat.
Today I share the version with Poeka were we had a huge focus on story telling and working with themes.

Testshoot with Iris

Today Iris visited our studio for a testshoot.
We are always looking for new models for our workshops and shoots and some of the models are invited for a short test shoot in which we look how the model “performs” in front of the camera, so today some images from Iris her test.
