Doing a little portfolio shooting this week. Worked with a few great models, Brendan and Vanessa. Started by shooting a few concepts that have been floating around my head for a while. We shot at Black Point in Narragansett, RI.
We did a lot of glamour/fashion type stuff at first, and then the shoot started trending towards more lifestyle type imagery… But then the models got dirty sitting in that tide pool so they had to wash off in the ocean and it turned into a bit of a glamour shoot again.
For the techies… Flashes were used in all these photos. The shaving shot had soft light on Vanessa (umbrella), and a hard light on Brendan (grid). The martini shot was two hard lights, one frontal and one to the side. All the individual portraits are two hard lights… a snoot coming in from high camera right and a gridded flash from waist level camera left. Oh, and the lifestyle tide pool shots were also one soft frontal and a hard side light to give the images some pop.
Hope you like ‘em!
