Todays Shoot - Emily (NSFW)

Today I was doing a second shoot with a model I worked with not too too long ago named Emily (see our previous shoot here: http://jeremysaffer.blogspot.com/2010/08/todays-shoot-emily-nsfw.html )

We planned on shooting more of the same style stuff - as its cold out - there isnt much opportunity to shoot outdoors as of right now.

SO! - we started with shooting stuff with split light - two 3x4 profoto softboxes on compact 300s - at about half power - shooting with the 70-200 2.8 L on on the Canon 1ds Mark 2 - shooting at F16 at a 160th ISO 100 - we did all the initial - non-corpse paint shots with this lighting. One of the shots she wanted to get was going to be just her and her glasses, which I thought was kind of cool, never done anything like that.


























































































Next up was corpse paint - first off we shot with the same settings - split light - 16, 160, 100.




































For the second set I used a beauty dish main pointed toward the model, with two rims just above her head height pointed down - for a different look - something i just started doing recently in the corpse paint shoots. For these I had the same settings - F16, at a 160th, ISO100. - shot on both white and black paper






















































for the last set I boomed the dish as high as it could go to get some strong directional lighting - pointing it straight down at the model - these were shot at F20






















































Always great working with a model a few times, the shoots become more efficient - you get what you both need much quicker - and you get a good rapport with each other knowing how one another work. SO! another great quick shoot in the bag.
