Downtown Fashion Shoot | Fashion Photos | Photo Forum

 

All images shot on the Canon 6d. Almost everything except the sky background shots were shot with the Canon 85 1.8 at 1.8.

The sky background shots were with the Canon 24-105 f4 within a stop of 4.0. It was a fun session and my first time working with a model for a fashion set. Something I’m working to improve (aside from everything right lol) is posing. I made some improvements in my opinion in this set. I gave her something to do with her arms and hands to try to create shapes and interest another important thing is I had her have her lips slightly parted, it is a much more attractive look for females than a closed mouth in my opinion.

 

She was up on a ledge, I’m laying on the ground and have an off camera flash behind me. 

 

 

Her face is angled toward an off camera flash which lets me carve out her cheekbones, jawlines and get nice catch lights with a fun crop.

Night time at this point, the light is the Ice Light (continuous lighting) I had my assistant holding for the Rembrandt lighting effect on her face and give nice dimension to the image while letting the far side slide off into darkness.

 

 

 

 

 

Same as above with my assistant holding the Ice Light.

 

 

 

 

This is a 3 light setup (almost considered 4) with 2 lights. She is in an archway. My assistant is still holding the Ice Light, I have one flash behind her aiming toward her and frame left. This gives us a strong hair light and bounces the extra light off the side and back into her face, I also angled myself to catch some of the flash firing directly into the lens for a glamour effect.
