Shooting Goodbye

Last Thursday shoot was a particular one as I “shot” one of my models, and friend, Ali Bromley just before she leaves to Sydney.

The shoot was particular in the way that it was planned in a very short time and we kept changing the theme all the time. I may say that arriving on set, I even didn’t know what exactly I was going to create.

The location was once again provided by the handsome Ben Appleton, we shot in the Penthouse of the Hotel Realm, in Barton, Canberra.

I wanted to play with colours and shooting a low key fashion session so I just brought a few small flash guns and mainly prime lenses.

The session was shot with a Canon 1D Mark IV along with the Canon EF 24 f/1.4 L II, 24 mm f/3.5 TSE L II, 50 f/1.2 L and 85 f/1.2 L II. One zoom lens was in the bag, the EF 16-35 f/2.8 L II.

Ali was wearing the make up by Bindi Kelly.

Other models on the set were Stefania Kightley and Stephanie Dontadd.

The make up for both models was by Kate Wal.

I also had the services of two male models, Nigel Hawkins and of course Ben Appleton (both make up by Bindi Kelly).

There was a special guest: Mr Speck the green python (coming along with Ali) and an unexpected and handsome guest Robert Boseski, Steffie’s boyfriend.

We had fun. More to come.
