p.1 #1 · Taylor - Fashion-Inspired Portrait Series


A few of my favorites from a recent session.

Some info on the lighting:
For the high-key images, I used a three-light flash setup:

-Main light: a 4' octagonal softbox, feathered (angled slightly away from the model) to create softer, indirect light.
-Background lights: two 1x4' strip boxes aimed at the back wall of the white cyclorama to blow it out and produce the glowing white background effect.

For the gray backdrop shots, I used a two-light flash setup:

-Main light: a 7' parabolic white bounce umbrella.
-Hair light: a 1x4' gridded strip box positioned slightly above and behind the model.
-A white V-flat was placed opposite the main light to provide subtle bounce fill light.

All images were taken using a Canon 5D Mark III and the Canon EF 85mm f/1.2L II lens.

Again just precision photography Daniel!!! White on white can really "fool" the camera's exposure if not done correctly. You have mastered that 100% Daniel! There are a couple of frames where her shoulder blends into the bg, disappearing a bit, but the profile you had the model standing for makes that blending great! And a compliment not a distraction.
Super Daniel!

Nice set Daniel. The lack of elbows in 2,3, and 6 seemed a bit odd to me.

Thank you so much Dan! The white on white can definitely be a challenge for me.

Thank you.

Yes, it happens. I don't feel like it ruined any of these photos though.
