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.

This week I made one couple shoot. It was -10 outside and we were able to work only for 1 hour so I didn’t get as much pictures I wanted. I hope when the weather will become warmer we will continue this photo shoot with them.

Today I spontaneously decided to write some things I learned after each shoot, cause there is always something new in every photo session.

Now what did we learn ?
I learned that I’ll think twice next time I want to shoot outside when there is ten degree below zero.

Today I want to post my first winter photo session. I started with my wife, we went to the forest not far from out house and made a short 40 min photo shoot, it was very cold outside -10 C° so we freezed after first 10 min shooting. So anyway let’s check out the photos I made. Also you can see the full winter photo session set.
