And this time we had a very special prop.
A Harley Davidson.
In two completely different setups I show you how to light the set and pose the model, but also how to light in zones and understanding feathering and light placement for reflections and covering up light sources.
During this episode we show you the first shoot I did with our new model Janaika.
I show you some tricks I use to get the model at ease, but also loads of tips on lighting and coaching the model.
You see the lighting setups via 3 cameras and of course all the images I shoot are shown in a PIP setup.
So how do I do it?
I will always start out with a standard pose, just to get the lighting right and the overall look of the shot.
But right after that I will start coaching the model not how to pose but more giving compliments, pushing his/her energy up.
If you don’t tell your model what to do but only adjust slightly you will always get awesome and unique poses.
How many models/photographers do you know/recognise due to the poses?
One of the most important things for me when I teach workshops is that I have to keep challenging myself but also the attendees of the workshops
This means I’m always looking for new creative way to use light, color, backgrounds, sets etc.
