Major Nikon
(36,827 posts)1. Interesting and creative use of digital technique
Simple, but quite original

(36,827 posts)3. The lighting is quite dramatic, but also seems pretty simple
If I were to venture to guess, I'd say there is probably a large rectangular soft box placed high above on camera left and some sort of frontal soft ambient lighting source in line with the camera used as a fill. So there's probably just two light sources for the entire shoot. If I were to do something like this, I'd probably use the video function of a digital SLR while the model moved artistically with the shutter speed set very low, and then merge the images in photoshop.

I'd love to see you replicate this process that is apparently incredibly simple.
Thanks in advance.

The online images are beautiful but the prints are truly gorgeous.

(4,483 posts)8. They were pretty large
If I had to guesstimate I'd say they were 40"x40"
