Elizabeth Payne & Sam Rooney Part II

I finally found sometime in today’s heavy time table to seat down and play around with some images from the shoot yesterday with Sam and Elizabeth.

Even the lighting was set up with care, I found that I still need sometime behind the computer to add my personal touch for each individual images, also I wanted to create some new effects.

Shooting in ruins can be interesting but the post process can be really time consuming as the idea is to keep all the details of the background, including crap and dust 🙂

Here are a few more.

Enjoy.

Elizabeth Payne & Sam Rooney. Impossible Triangle

I know Elizabeth for a while in the virtual world and finally IRL (In Real Life) for a shoot together.

Elizabeth is one of the girls that know what they want and know what to do to achieve it.

It was really easy to shoot with her as she has a lot of experience and very easy to direct. I just needed to give her an idea of a story and she would know how to make it work. That’s really awesome and we had lots of fun.

Liz came along with the athletic Sam Rooney who is starting out an inspiring modeling career. Being with a model (Elizabeth) and willing to get out there, Sam put a lot of effort into the shoot and the photos came out very nice.

We also had Katrina Lewis who stopped by for a few shots with us.

Tamsin. The Model Mayhem

I had a shoot this afternoon with Tamsin and I must say that I was blown away by the model.

As I always do, I met Tamsin during the week for a meet and greet chat about the shoot and what I had in mind.

Tamsin appeared as a very reserved young lady, almost shy, but willing to do her best for the shoot.

Well, I knew a bit about Tamsin before meeting her and knew what she was capable of but I’d say that I was blown away at the photo shoot.

I am a full time flash shooter and use several flashguns intensively. With Tamsin, I didn’t need the light. She was the light.

The session started a bit in a mess with the flashguns not getting in sync with the radio poppers and also, once again, it was an outdoor shot and it was freezing.

Hummm… It took me a while to set the lights up, while Tamsin was standing in a light business suit (that was the theme of the shoot, by the way) and I had to warm up the session before the model got frozen.

Anyway, here are a few images of the afternoon shoot (more to come soon).

Amanda @ the Marketplace

Yes, Idid it again.

I dragged another young and talented model out of the comfy of her lodge for a cold outdoor shoot Frdiay.

I wanted a theme with the chic and the abandoned and have asked Amanda to have some classy outfit for the shoot, which took place at a marketplace just in border of Canberra.

There was sunshine but we shot almost under the shade and it was pretty cold. Even we were shooting next to a fireplace.

For this shoot, I used exclusively the Canon 5D Mark II, off camera flashes using a pair of Canon 580 EX II remote-triggered by a set of Radio Poppers and a Canon ST-E2.

Check out some images from the shoot.
