POTD 15 July 2015 - Directions

Yes, I am in catch up mode again.

Nice image and like the direction of light on the model is matched by the same direction on the background.

In fact this model looks very familiar. Im sure she models for one of the photo mags I buy, probably Digital SLR Photography.

Thanks for the comments, Paul.

I only shoot the best.

Now for the admission. The lighting was set up by Damien Lovegrove during a demonstration held as part of a Fuji experience day held at Amateur Photographer's offices recently. I was in the audience near the front snapping* away as he did so. Based on a conversation I had with the model later on, I suspect that she poses for him on a regular basis, so it's quite possible that you have seen her elsewhere.

There was another opportunity to shoot her at the end of the day, but I had to leave early. Due to an unfortunate clash of dates, I had to come away so that I could give you lot my practical demonstration of Lightroom. I missed out on the free booze as well. Oh, the sacrifices I make for this club.

Not on a Fuji, either, but my trusty Olympus E-M10 and 45 f/1.8 lens.
