Today's Shoot
Just one shoot today, but with an amazing model. Our location scouting last week paid off, as we went to a great little deserted country road. Valentina was stunning, she hardly spoke a word of english but her natural sass made up for our communication breakdown. I was really after rain, but I was quite worried how it would show up in the pictures, luckily the rain was light, and it looked really amazing in the pics. I think the picture below will be too small to show up the rain droplets, but look closely.
...and one more shot of Valentina herself because she is amazing.
Couldnt see the raindrops at first, but then noticed them in the trees and on the jeans..
Once I noticed them in the second shot, I thought the photo had a new dimension (especially if the raindrops are more apparent in a larger shot)..
Valentina's bare skin stands out so well and mixed with her attitude, it has a 'no rain drops on me' type of vibe..
I don't think these kind of shoots could be achieved in America as much. Australia has so much open space with no people. Damned America is chook full with peeps everywhere. Hope your well Kristy, did you get my e-mails re night time photography? Max
