This is from a fundraising event I organised about a week ago in aid of a model who needs life-saving surgery for a very rare brain condition called "Arnold Chiari Syndrome" in which the brain is pulled into the spinal canal. That's not her in the image - but one of 6 models who donated their time to the event. I thought I'd post this one as it reminded me of something one of the photographers who attended kept complaining about: he kept saying "the light is harsh" and by that I think he meant it was hard - and I love a hard light in these classic indoor settings - reminiscent of the 1930's Hollywood lighting styles. "Yes I said - you just need to pay more attention to where the light is coming from when it's hard". "Have you got a softbox?" he'd say. "No" I replied. "That isn't the look I'm going for - and providing for you". "But there's a shadow". "Yes!"
I'm using 2 AD200's here with the speedlight type heads and some black card tubes to make zoomable snoots. One on the key to camera right and one up on the landing above aimed back through the railings. I dialled in a slow shutter to steal some of the ambient light in the room for fill. (was on the clock and didn't have time to rig a flash-driven fill light)
The flare is added in post using the BorisFX flare engine as not even my shonky old Sigma 24-70 f/2.8 lens will make flares like this.
Double or composite key light made up of a small silver beauty dish with a grid, plus a 27x120cm strip softbox also with a grid. Both have blue gels.
Meanwhile, in the back we have 2 orange edge lights using standard 7" reflectors plus 30 degree grids and barn doors. Right behind Phoenix, we have another 7" reflector pointing back at camera through the dense fog.

When you see something shimmer in the corner of your eyes you just need to go all out and make it shine!

The cloud in the foreground is made by running the fog through a metre-long conduit filled with freezer blocks to chill it. This makes the fog stay on the floor and vastly increases the density.

I had the awesome opportunity to create a visual post for @Boris FX Optics Sinister Shots campagne. Off course this was right up my alley and who can say no when the ever talented Renee Robyn asks you for spooky pixels!
Combining my self portraiture (didn't find a model in time) with some studio lighting, a 3D skull from blender and a big load of BorisFX Optics for grading, masking, particles, lensFX and so much more, this came out!

Kerry Walker at the last 1:1 tutorial I did a few weeks ago. This set was all about layering colours, going from broad to localised, cool to warm and dim to bright.
Here we started with a broad blue wash from an overhead softbox. No grids on this to ensure a wide spread, and lots of spill onto the white background.
Next we have an orange fill light from below, that shows up wherever the blue light doesn't reach.
Then, two red edge lights in the back, left and right.
A yellow light is coming from camera right to illuminate Kerry's face (tight, warm and bright light). I used the Lightblaster to focus this through a 50mm lens.
Finally, on the background, Im using another projection unit with a pink light, through an 85mm lens, and an abstract pattern gobo.
The sparkly bits are added in post, using BorisFX Optics.
In love with these images we made with model Indra. We shot various sets so there is little continuity in this series, but loved working on the images and make them shine. Most didn't need that much editing, which always feel off for me a bit. But sometimes images just don't need more then a bit of color correction.
Martin Okereafor stars in this picture, and also created this amazing Falcon costume. He looks the part too!

Using my Nanette pavotubes to add a serious splash of color to an image, combined with a Good projection spot. I'm so happy with the ability to color on set.
Before I used to just play with white strobes and just layed out the initial lights and darks, and then add some color into my Photoshop edits. Now I have the lights on set and I have a different starting point to edit. And with BorsFX Optics there is so much room to play and experiment to get a certain mood.

Inspired by the amazing work of @borisvallejoartist I’ve been making these fantasy creations for a few years now. They’re a mixture of studio and location photographs, a bit of manual painting in Photoshop, sometimes some 3D models lit and rendered in Daz Studio, and other effects such as the star field on this image, generated using the aptly named @borisfx_optics. All stitched together in @photoshop
Susie’s bold, abstract body art and metal fits in really well with this theme - it’s timeless and evokes a tribal feel. She is also very expressive with her posing which is essential to the success of any image implying a narrative.

Enjoying our new home, the light and the cats being pretty. What better way to spend an afternoon working on some images of our besties ;-)

So Liv and I were in the studio one evening after a shoot and decided to shoot a few using the light I had set up but the long red dress she had on just looked too bunched up when we tried to shorten it. We found this one on the rails but it was still way too big for her. So - around the back, we have no less than 4 A-Clamps, and the front is held on by some double-sided body tape.
The light is my current favourite of a hard(ish), and warmed overhead light coupled with a neutral hard edge light or two in the back, and a blueish fill light (from the front).
I was running some chilled fog across the floor from the left, but in this frame, most of the cloud is an actual cloud - it's a shot of some sky I made from my studio balcony a couple of years ago. The stars I sprinkled on using BorisFX Optics Nightsky generator

Venturing into some UVIVF photography and just had a blast trying to shoot images in pitch dark balancing one UV light in one hand and trying to focus and press the shutter in the other hand ;-) Didn't yet get my results but I did get some weird photo's to play with.
Here I combined some blue UV images with a "normal" lit image and using blend modes I managed to extract some fine details in the withering petals.

Happy Flower Friday, everyone! 🌷📷
I can't get enough of these beautiful tulips! Getting up close and personal with these delicate flowers is truly magical. I've been building a whole series of these shots, and I'm excited to share them with you all.
I'm still trying to figure out what to do with all these photos - should I print them and create a gallery wall, or make them available for sale? Let me know if you're interested in owning one of these stunning tulip shots.
The detail in these photos is absolutely incredible, and I'm thinking about experimenting with larger-than-life prints to really showcase their beauty. What do you think?Shot in HighRes mode on my OM1 camera and edited in Photoshop with BorisFX Optics for the perfect color grade.
The one in the foreground is Samantha Harding: singer, dancer and actor.
Sam wanted some shots for social media and in return for an amazing singing performance at the Kiln Studio open day, the Collective Vision Team shot several sets with her. Nicole directed and shot most of the pictures on this shoot, with me providing lighting, and I grabbed a few as I set up and tested the lights including this one.
The night sky is accurate for the date of the shoot from Winsford in the UK - generated by the Nightsky render engine in BorisFX Optics. The aurora, also generated by Optics, is not accurate :P
Lighting: overhead spotlight with CTO gel and a blue wash from a large softbox.
My good friend René posing as a true gentleman again. We worked from his outfit and his idea of a vintage old photo look. I love how I managed to capture the look of a recovered old photo.

sometimes from chaos a pattern emerges.
Our new home and new workspace is coming along slowly, and surely my brain is letting in creative thoughts again. I haven’t created a lot lately and getting back into the flow of it can be overwhelming sometimes. Just the sheer thought of putting in the work can make me stop before I even begin. It must be an ADHD thing.
But everything starts with small steps. I have my camera closely, working from home, and watching the cats play in the beautiful winter light.
So I take breaks from work, just to watch, explore, enjoy, capture.
From there I just let my mind wander on the photo’s; nothing is set, nothing “needs” to be made, just doodling, just experimenting.
And as it happened I chatted with Shoo Mars Rae (@marinovitch) about their process, and tried to put that in this image. Followed by reading the latest post by @renee on the importance of chasing brain squirrels. I just had to make this, for fun, for me, for reconnecting with my craft.
I love digital doodling, you should give it a try.
A dash of @BorisFXoptics to spice it up

Here we played with some colored lights (mostly red) to see what would happen, but eventually I opted for this monochrome look.
