A Self Portrait of a Photographer in Leather

Took this after finishing a shoot where the model specifically wanted the high-key, single light look ala Terry Richardson. The setup is simple enough;

  • White paper seamless for backdrop
  • single naked strobe parallel to and just to the right of the lens.
  • model within a few inches of the backdrop

That’s it.   Stupid simple setup.  Getting exposure right at +2 compensation took a few shots, but once it’s right, lock down the camera, set the strobe and start taking photos.

This was from a quick set of me just playing around with the remote after the session.   More self portraits coming while I work out logistics with a couple of fantastic Atlanta area photographers to put me in the hot seat in front of the lens.  I can’t wait.

A couple more from last weekend’s Group Shoot at Studio Eris.

Both images are behind the cut.  Wouldn’t want to cause any spontaneous combustion amongst the various HR departments around town.

Group shoot – Studio Eris

I organized a small group photo shoot at Studio Eris in Atlanta last weekend.  We had, for a change, more models than photographers show up.  Much fun was had by all.  I didn’t even need to defenestrate any of the first-timers.

I’m still working through the sets I shot.  Below are a few from the first set of the beautiful LaDonna

EDIT: Added a photo I missed on the original upload.

NSFW images below the fold.
