3 for 3

photography, Portrait, portraiture, self portrait, strobe photography, studio

Everyone who’s been following me for awhile knows I like release my images in sets of 3.

I like the playful colors in this set. I’m glad I put it out for people to see ๐Ÿ™‚

I love this shot!

Portrait

This is more in line with the images I like to create. While they definitely serve a purpose, I don’t really like plain whiteish backgrounds. I much prefer dynamic lighting with shadows if I’m using strobes.

This shot is featuring my #suicidegirls “Fill in the blank____” tee.

What do you think about this style? Do you have a preference?

So much emotion ๐Ÿ™Œ

One of the things I find so interesting and captivating about Laz’s shots are her emotive facial expressions. I love this look. This is one of her signature expressions. What do we think about Laz? Have you all enjoyed her shots this week?

Look at those piercing blue eyes ๐Ÿ˜Œ

Laz was so professional and cool to shoot with. She comes prepared and ready to shoot, knows her poses and, can find the light! I’ll definitely be shooting her again when our timelines align ๐Ÿ™‚

Heading into the weekend and wrapping this series

Portrait, portraiture, self portrait

What has everyone thought of the series? Have you tried this kind of shoot?

Here’s the “gift” I mentioned:

Would it surprise any of you to find out that this isn’t actually a true golden hour shot? This was manufactured using strobe and gels! Doesn’t it look legit?! There’s actually a strobe on the other side of this window. It’s setup tall and facing at a downward angle (to mimic the sun) and, I have it remotely firing through the blinds. Isn’t that cool. I LOVE the creativity involved with photography. I don’t NEED a sunny day to take sunny portraits; just a little bit of creativity.

Are any of you going to try this? You need a pretty powerful strobe and you need some quality CTO gels. 1 or 2 should do it.

Let me know how it goes for you if you try it!

Have a happy weekend!

Time to let the sun shine in :-)

I learn so much when I do self shoots. I had a ton of fun capturing these. Enjoy!

P.s. Stick around til the end of the series. I have something for you ๐Ÿ™‚
