Isolation Challenge 1

As with thousands of other portrait and fashion photographers in the UK I am a member of Purpleport a modelling portfolio site, and with the lock down and isolation needed to prevent the spread of Covid-19, a few kindly members have offered the use of their RAW files for other members to edit and post on the site. I have just finished my first attempt, the original photographer is Matt and his portfolio can be found here MaffsterX, the model is Chantelle Parker .

Beth Kate

 I have been aware of Beth Kate for some time as she lives not too far from Birmingham and she had a look that suited a style of shoot I have been planning to shoot for some time. Contact was made a shoot was organised and planned quickly. The shoot was in two sections natural light and a studio set. The day of the shoot we had a sunny day which made the light levels and camera settings not too difficult to manage. The images shown here are from those sets as I had a few problems with the studio images technically which will need further work.

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.

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.
