A very good creative shoot.

Had a really great shoot in the studio today with Gabriel Bryan, a really lovely and talented model. I had been looking forward to this shoot for a couple of weeks after arranging it before the last of our assignments were finished.

Anyway I wanted to go for some moody lighting as we had got a costume designer in to show some of her clothes.

I was a bit worried that I had not quite got it right and was constantly adjusting the settings to begin with, but then I felt I settled in to the shoot and everything began to go really nicely.

For the first time in quite a while I was really itching to process these pictures and although some of the images are not as strong as I'd hoped the task of editing was not a chore at all. I feel I've got some really good images from this shoot and I honestly feel that this is definitely an area where my strengths lay, whether it be in editorial or fashion photography we'll just have to see.

Positively itching to do more!

Here's a link for a sight I like called Strobox, which has lighting diagrams to show how the photographer set up the shot.

New Blog

So today we've set up our new summer research blogs to see what we'll all be doing and looking at over the summer. Not sure how this will work out for me, but interested to view the results of others as well.
