Very cool set Sam. I love 1, 4, 7, and 14. Thanks for posting this set. Hope you don\'t mind that I add to your thread.
To answer Andrew\'s question: Why? Well, like shooting flowers, birds in flight, insect macro, or landscapes, its just practicing the thing one enjoys most about photography. We\'re wedding photographers, but I need a break from altar shots and Uncle Bobs.
Its just us playing with light and beautiful subjects.
Haley, large softbox + window light. I love her tones and the shape of her face.
Getting a decently equipped studio, edgy urban location, three non-flaky good-looking models, two stylists, eight couture outfits, and four busy photographers together in the middle of high season, could have been a freaking nightmare. But it wasn\'t.
Angel. Large softbox + window light. She\'s russian and I love her exotic look.
Btw, its not a maglite on my camera in Sam\'s shots; I was aiming a snooted head + spot grid. While one person shoots, the others hang back or do lighting; we tried not to shoot each others\' poses. At one point we had to get out of the studio, so we shot two sets simultaneously.
Sam on the floor, Erwin above.
Apertura was the impetus since they were in town also to do a wedding and a bunch of e-seshes. That morning they picked up Sam and I from the east bay in their big van! They ended the day pushing back their flight, just to get more photos in the better light. Their passion is really, really impressive.
Erin in the abandoned warehouse. Lit w/medium softbox up high. This girl can move! ...I think I\'m still in love with her.
Sam\'s crazy personality also makes him the best fixer possible. Without him we would have had no subjects, no stylists, and everyone\'s energy would have peetered out. Dude has no limits.
Haley in the smoky garage. My clothes still wreak of sulfur, but seeing her in the changing light was worth it.
