Me and my photography friends – Jeremy and Rio shot in Pandora’s Studios 2 weeks back, it was an epic shoot. I would have to break the whole thing into 2 or even 3 posts, because I’d like to keep posting pictures and don’t want you guys keep waiting and then post 40 pictures at onceSo here we go, let’s start with Vanessa, she’s very talented and beautiful person, she’s a trooper too – was putting up with us for over half a day, and it was pretty long day. I have to also add that 3 of us are not so easy to tolerate, especially Rio, lol just kidding !

Big thanks to Deanna for doing makeup for all 3 models (different looks for each model), and Jennifer and Nicole for doing hair. Thanks to Lover’s Lane we got to shoot Vanessa wearing gorgeous lingerie. All that together along with awesome people and location made one awesome shoot! We got lucky and got access to 1st floor gallery, so this post won’t be about boring white seamless.

For main light we used Elinchrom Ranger RX and Deep Octa on extension pole - you can easily figure out the position where it was placed, either based on the catchlight, or the shadows. Usually we placed it high above or at the eye level. All triggered via Pocket Wizard. For last set of photos – just ABR800 Ring Flash

 

 

I also took my Mamiya so I could get different look and b&w. It was a little bit tricky, because I was shooting my digital either ISO 50, 100 or 200, and my film was rated ISO400. We were also limited by the time, so I had to do the math in my head pretty fast – thank God I graduated from Technical UniversitySame light source – Deep Octa and ABR800. FILM used: Ilford XP-2 400 C41 for B&W and Kodak PORTRA 400 for color.
