Claire
This was the first shoot in the new studio that required more complex lighting. Claire’s make-up was done by the wonderful Jamie. I can only recommend Jamie, she’s very professional and her work speaks for herself. Working with Claire was very nice and easy as well. We spend a few hours talking, laughing and taking some pictures.
For this session we were working with a huge Octobox as a main light and alternating between a Beautydish and small Softbox as a fill light. For the background we used a mixture of different modifiers. We used some of the pics to do some heavy post processing using photoshop for some promotional work.
I really love the light that the Octobox produces but using it in the studio greatly reduces light flexibility due to it’s size. You really need to balance the need for flexibility against light here.
