Behind the scenes shot - Dani and Steph

in photofeed •  7 years ago 

I love taking shots like this on a shoot. It shows some of the actual setup rather than just the close up portraits.

In this case you can see some of my lighting, which was one large keylight in front and 2 rim lights behind the models. You can see the light stand in the forefront to camera right which is where the keylight was mounted. Then 2 speedlights in the rear, to separate the models from the dark background.

Its quite a simple setup but gives a nice stylish look. Also having 2 stunning models helps too.

Do you guys ever take behind the scenes shots like this showing your setup? If so post links below I'd love to see what you guys are doing.

It must be really hard for you to get up in the morning and have to photograph beautiful models!!

I've just decided I'm in the wrong job and I want to do what you do :-)

Haha trust me not every shoot involves stunning models. Theres plenty of less interesting stuff I shoot too but I figure nobody wants me to share the dull stuff 😁

I'm sure the model shoots more than make up for the 'dull stuff'. Looking forward to more posts. Take care.

True, it does help balance things out a bit.

"I love taking shots like this on a shoot." I'm sure you DO Dave, I'm sure you do! ;)

Trust me there's an equal amount of dull shoots I don't post about.

I believe ya! But we only get to see the good one's so you can't blame us for being a little jealous of your perceived world! ;)

This photo is not exactly "dull"... but I for one would love to see what you DO call dull. This one works for me as a "behind the scenes" shot. Not sure I can roll with the choice of lingeré.... I might have chosen a larger size corset.

Well the choice of outfit was down to the clothing store who sponsored the shoot. I had no say in that one. Dull for me is product, or food shoots, events, landscapes. Pretty much anything not involving portraits. That doesn't really mean they're dull shots, but my interest in photography is mostly around shooting portraits. I do other jobs as paid work, and I do them well. Its just not my preference for what I like to shoot 🙂
