Fashion Blogs

I have been asked more times than I can count, if I can share my lighting with photographers wishing tounderstand what I did for a specific image I have done. So I decided tohave one of my shoots which features designers “Paul & Joe” Parisfor their Spring/Summer collection captured on video.

Frédérique Renaut used a Fuji F100 digital 6 mega pixel consumer digitalcamera to capture the scenes and quite frankly, I am quite impressedwith the results.

None the less, it will give you an insider view in to one of my shoots where I used a mixed bag of HMIcinema lights, Tungsten and Flash as well as scrims, flags and otherstuff to achieve my goal.

Julie Potapova from Silent Models in Paris was a pleasure to work with as was Marielle Loubet the Make-Up artist and Stylist Parissima Saleh. In fact although a very, very longday, it was a real pleasure working with the whole team.

I was also very pleased with the clothing on offer from “Paul & Joe” Paris. They worked perfectly forthe theme, except for one change that didn’t work out. Was not as fluidas I would have liked and the color I chose for the capture didn’t workwith the rest, so we decided to use another clothing change that wouldbe more in line with the rest of the theme.

Anyways, hope you enjoy this almost as much as I did.
