Todays Shoot - Krista (NSFW)

Krista came out from the land of oh hi oh! she came up to shoot and holy shit will you guys be stoked when you see the corpse paint images we got! - they will be in the book - but again im not going to be posting many here - just a few to show you a taste of the awesomeness. Also, i will say its easier to shoot black metal photos with someone who is actually really into black metal and understands what im trying to do - as some models see corpse paint and go "oh like a zombie" ...oof. no! haha. Krista is one of the true, grim und kvlt!

Anyway

she rolled up and we started with a ton of awesome clothes she had - corsets, lingerie - then she took a pair of leggings and cut them up with a razor blade - she cut herself once or twice i believe - but gave for an awesome look. These are all shot with the 70-200 - the corset shots are F16 - then the lingerie shot was F14 - the leg shot was F11 - then the leggings shots were F14 - the reason for the change was I wanted to brighten it up for the shots that showed more skin tone and keep the corset shots a bit darker - these are again split light - but i kept the soft boxes at about 5 feet apart - maybe less to get some harsher shadows and give her a darker look.





































































































































Next up - she had this awesome pelt - look out peta! and an awesome old school bon jovi shirt she wanted to shoot in - same settings and lighting

























































Next up was CORPSE PAINT! and like i said - i wont be posting a bunch of them - but needless to say - this shoot was top 3 of the corpse paint shoots thus far - im sure probably 5 or 6 images from this shoot will be in the book

buuuuuuut you get two.

so!

heres one in studio - boomed dish - close to the model rather than far away for more selective lighting and contrast - shot at F13



















After shooting in studio we went outside and went on a journey!

we went down by the water - got some excellent shots there - then went to the bridge about a quarter mile away from the studio and found a bunch of awesome branches that looked creepy but framed her face PERFECTLY! while a homeless sketchy dude kinda looked on - walked away - we shot - then he came back as we were leaving and tried to talk to us about... dunno cause we walked fast haha. anyway - 3.5 - 24-70 ISO500 as the light was dying













This was THE BEST shoot ive done in a while for this - mostly because - SHE GETS IT! - im trying to get her back here before the book closes to get another day or two of shooting in with her - im so pumped on these shots - and when you see them in print - you will be stoked as well!
