Kirsty Fitness Model

I had a shoot early June with Kirsty, a competitive fitness model, it was the first time she had shot in the lingerie/boudoir style and was understandably nervous, after a chat about the shoot and a look through the mood board we got under way she did fantastically well. Apart from the images below we also took some standard glamour style fitness looks. I am hoping to connect with Kirsty again after her competition and close to her peak look for more fitness images.

Isolation . ... Going through the archives

As I am in week two of twelve of isolation, I am going back into my digital archives starting with 2004 when I first bought a DSLR the images below are of Maria who ended up featuring in a overseas version of Playboy and has long retired. Taken on a late afternoon entirely natural light with two large white polystyrene boards as fill in. The second set were taken in my lounge using a self made background using dyed painters dust sheet lit with Courtney Colorflashes with silver umbrellas.

Nudes

Slowly getting back into the groove after having received my covid jabs and after over a year of near isolation apart from seeing only my family and delivery drivers, I am rebooking shoots that were cancelled because of the lockdown. One style of nudity I have not seriously tried was body scapes apart from a couple of shoots with coloured gels a few years ago. The images in this blog are are all black and white and low key, the first two images of mature model Maisie, the other model is Lilia a newish model who has a fantastic physique although wasn't in training when we shot.

Nicola & Jen

Nicola & Jen , a set on Flickr. I contacted mua Nicola Tseng through Model Mayhem as she was local and looking to collaborate with local photographers after a few emails we decided on on a urban theme shooting in black and white. Nicola had been in contact with a new model who was keen to add to her portfolio, it was just a matter of finding a location that had not been overused as is the case in Birmingham once somewhere new is found the foot fall from photographers is great. So I went looking around the Digbeth/Highgate area and found boarded up parking lot with a few boards missing granting easy access, it was also close to the White Room Studio whose owner Dan Stone allowed us to use the dressing room to prep. Two days before the shoot our 'model' disappeared, fortunately I was able to draft in Jen who models under the name of Envii Mi at short notice. The shoot itself went well shot entirely in natural light and using reflectors and a diffuser.

A few images that I managed not to screw up completely
