Glamour testsession with Jamie

In this blog post some images from the testsession I did with Jamie for our glamour workshops.
This is one of the last testsets for a while, I’ve found a few new models, but I will of course keep doing test sessions, but at the moment I’ve found what I was looking for. As mentioned before, these testsessions are not meant as “photo shoots” it’s of course a photo shoot (although they only take 2 hours), but the light setups used are standard, so if you think “Hey I’ve seen this before” you are right…. I just post them to share and give some information in between and of course to give some eye candy to the visitors 😀

Cherelle fashion 1:1 workshop

Today it was time for a 1:1 workshop with one of the most beautiful models I know (well ok they are all beautiful bit it sounds nice, doesn’t it ?) Cherelle. The 1:1 workshops are always special because the student can make his/her own program, and for me it’s always challenging because I can often do stuff I normally don’t teach during the workshops, or do in my own work.

Using a light source in many ways, the Elinchrom 1.90 octa.

Some light sources can be used in many different ways, I’m an Elinchrom shooter and the two light sources I love most are the Deep Octa and the 1.90 Octa. With the Deep Octa it’s very clear you can use it in many different ways due to the way it has been build/designed by Elinchrom. You can remove the front material, the center diffuser, use deflectors etc. etc. however with the 1.90 octa there is often some more confusion and a lot of people think it can only be used to mimic window light, they are wrong….

Fashion shoot with Rianne

On Wednesday it was time again for a live stream from our studio.
During some photoshoots we use a webcam in the studio and stream the whole day for the viewers who are interested to see what we do during a photoshoot. Rianne was our model for this day and she needed a new portfolio so that meant a lot of different looks in a short period of time, a perfect day to stream.

Our team :
Photography : me
Assistants/Video : Wendy Appelman / Dilani
