I've just seen, that it has been a while since I've posted the last blog post ... the last couple of weeks (and as it seems the next couple of weeks as well) were really busy ones. My schedule was filled with a couple of payed shootings, which is very good for my purse, but not so good for the blog and my website ... ;-). Fortunately Pascal has allowed my to use two of the pics which I have made for him in this blog and so it is possible for me to let you know what I have done a little bit ... THANK YOU very much for that!!!
This shooting was the „first time" for Pascal in front of the camera and I have to say he has done a great job!! His nervousness was soon gone and after that you could see it was a fun-job for him. The communication ahead of the job was great too, as were his ideas. It sure wont be the last time I've worked with him ... and if anyone of you needs a male model, I'm sure he'd be happy to get booked by you (you'll get his data from me, if he approves).
I don't only want to show you the pics, but explain how I've took them as well. As I constantly get asked that anyway, I'll kill two birds with one stone ... ;-) If you'll click the thumbnails, you'll see the whole pic and you can move to the setup-pic as well.
Picture 1:

I've metered the light directly at the neck of the model. The flash was used at a relatively low amout-setting in order to use the light-loss that comes with the distance from the lightsource with max. effect.
Die EXIF's for this pic are: ISO 100, f8, 1/160s, 85mm
Picture 2:

I've metered the light directly on the shoulder of the model and again used a low-amount setting to use the light-loss-effect.
Die EXIF's for this pic are: ISO 100, f8, 1/160s, 85mm
And now comes a question for you: do you want to read such posts more often? Are you interested in the way I shoot? Or do you just want to see my pics? Please let me know, so I can adjust what I post ... I think that would be good for all of us!!!
