Exhibition and another shoot

Hey,

so it has been a while since the last post... so what happened since?
Had a number of shoots, however there are 2 shoots that I will talk about today.
First I did a fashion shoot with the theme 'sport' together with stylist Sam, models Diana and Dagmara and makeup artist Sienna and clothes by designer Sarmite Ostanevica. The shoot took place on a Monday and I needed 5 images of that shoot for an exhibition the week after, so the pressure was on. The location we shot at was the same warehouse where the exhibition was a week later. Constructions were still going on so at times even shouting wasn't loud enough to communicate plus it was quite cold inside but everyone did a great job. I had 3 days to look through the images and choose the 5 images that I wanted to use and retouch.
Exhibition was great with a good turn out and had some good feedback so big thanks again to all involved, you all did great and I couldn't have done without you.

The next shoot was once again with stylist Sam and model Emelie and makeup by Erica. We were lucky enough to have one of the first days this month of sunshine which was great at we were shooting outdoors. However the wind was still cold so it wasn't the same as a shoot in the summer. We had 2 locations for the shoot, a plain brick wall and then a garden. Besides the cold Emelie did a great job. I used mainly one softbox and then on some shots a 2nd light as fill light. The images below were only edited in Lightroom however will further retouch some of them.

Next week then I am going to do a shoot with 2 Beachvolleyball players in the city and then a few more shoots coming soon.

Till then, leave a comment below

Shoot with the Bruce Sistaz

Hey

as promised last time, here a bit about the shoot I did with the Bruce Sistaz, two martial artists who appeared in various shows, films and commercials. Unlike the last shoot I did with them about 2 years ago, this time we were shooting in a studio, so much warmer which was a relief.
We started of with some casual shots and then moved into more action shots where the Chloe and Grace were showing what they can do. Main problem with action shots usually is to capture the right moment, which with some of the stuff we did was still the case such as jumps, however when it came to kicks they were holding it with ease long enough to take a few shots. We had a few hours to play around, try different positions, light set ups and backdrops. All in all a fun shoot and I was happy with the results.

Here the pics, so have a look and let me know what you think.
