I had the pleasure to work with Alejandra right before Thanksgiving 2011, but then got super busy, and went to Poland for Christmas (pictures coming soon) not that I was slacking or anything like that :/ Anyway, finally I postprocess the pictures, so here they are…
Little bit about the light:
pictures with the white background – main light Elinchrom Ranger RX + Deep Octa, two Striboxes on each side behind the model to make the background white. For the picture in the middle, we turned the background lights off, and I kinda liked the grey look of it – changes are good, right?
Below, Deep Octa as a main light, camera left:
Same Deep Octa + Elinchrom Ranger RX here, subject right slightly above, tilted:
Combined with Deep Octa, Elinchrom Ranger RX is such a mobile and awesome source of light, that I dragged it with me almost everywhere. I think I’ve mentioned it before, but the light coming out from Deep Octa is so forgiving and soft, sometimes it makes me feel that no matter where I position it, picture will come out nice…
Here are couple of shots from medium format Mamiya 645AF + 80mm 2.8, same lighting setup as for digital. I used Seconic L-758DR Light Meter for metering the light (and my math skills to go from ISO100 – digital, to ISO400 – Kodak PORTRA 400) , Pocket Wizards remote triggering system.
