SLAYERPHOTOGRAPHY

Had a wonderful photo session with a young and talanted singer Ieva. It was -1 below zero Saturday morning, we arrived at the location made our main setup for the photo with the candle lamp, I think that I wanted to make that photo for about a year or so, and finally I got a great model and opportunity to make this stunning shot. We also made a few portrait shots as well.

Then we went to an old building in the center of Riga with a big window in the roof, which gave us great soft natural light but we also used some strobist stuff to achieve greater results in our photo session with Ieva.

Roman Lukjanenko from ChewedFilm made a great behind the scenes video of this photo shoot check it out as well.

The second photosession from last Sunday with my friend Jevgenija. I decided to make a session for my upcoming portfolio as a Forest Nymph. We were lucky to catch the last warm day in the month, had a 2 hour photo shoot and made some awesome shots.

Ever wonder how magazine like photos are taken? Check out this simple DIY Briese like reflector, you can make some cool beauty style head shots with it. This is probably not the best example, and the parabolic reflectors are generally much larger than this one. But you might understand that just an ordinary cardboard reflector with aluminum foil pasted on the reflecting side, can produce pretty good results.

Check out the pics here.

This video provided by Strobist will help you know more about the flashes, how to use them, mount them and get great results!
