From Lingerie to Art Nude – Low-key Lighting with Valentina

Amazing Valentina back in our studio for a day of lingerie, boudoir and art nudes!

Create high impact images by playing with light and shadows. Low-key lighting is all about creating drama, showing off the lines, curves and shapes of your subject, adding depth and intimacy, or abstracting your model.

Back- and side-lighting is recommended, and by careful adjustment of both your lights and the model’s pose you can fine-tune the final image.

Don’t miss this opportunity to create something special for your portfolios and to build experience working with studio lights and modifiers: check your calendars and sign up soon!

• Model

The model for this shoot will be Valentina – she is an experienced model, working up to art nude levels.

• Location

A professional photography studio near Stratford. Different backgrounds, light modifiers and props available.

The lights will be setup in advance, but you are free to experiment with them (and I’ll be there all the time for help).

Parking places are available nearby the studio.

• Format

Book one or more slots for yourself, for only £75/h.

You’ll be shooting 1-2-1 with the model, allowing you to direct her and to get original poses and photos for your portfolio. No more ‘stolen’ ideas, no pressure to only have 5 minutes to take that special shot!

• BeautyWorks Magazine

All participants to our photo shoots and events are invited to send their best photos for publication in our free monthly magazine. Current issue available here: http://beautyworks.live/issue40

• What to bring

No experience of the particular theme is required and we can accommodate all levels of ability. As usual, we will take care of everything and all you need is your camera (with a standard hot-shoe).
