This is the fifth and last part from the series I shot with Jennifer Hansen, Modelbureauet Modelbooking in Ã…rhus. These shots are photographed in the corner of the daylight studio I rented at Christina Lykke’s Skyderiet.dk. and is lit with one flash aimed towards the roof. To get some contrast in the photo I had a big, black blanket which I have span between two light stands and positioned right behind me. Stylist on this shoot was Malene Micha Juhl. Working with both these fantastic people was fun and exciting.

Maybe you have seen this first photo on my portfolio. Here is the story behind. Model is Stephanie Bäckström from Modelbureauet Modelbooking in Ã…rhus, styling, hair and make-up was done by Maria Scläger Jensen and the location was Your Rainbow Panorama by Olafur Eliasson, on the top of the art museum in Ã…rhus, Aros. Since we started off quite early we hadn’t been bothered by that many people visiting Aros, but suddenly a man appeared in my frame, I waited until he had the same posture as my model, Stephanie, who didn’t know why I waited so long before I shot the picture. A some kind of art by accident. This picture is shot in the green part of the panorama. My experience with shooting in these light conditions were that I had be really care full not to use my LCD-display on the back of my camera to review the exposure, first of all because the light in the room were colored by the windows, second it was impossible to see anything on the screen. To get the right exposure in color filtered lighting environment, trust your light meeter.

This is part three of model test I had with Jennifer Hansen, Modelbureauet ModelBooking. Stylist of the photo shoot was Malene Micha Juhl, who did a fabulous job of preparing Jennifer for the different pictures. This part of the photo shoot is inspired by fashion photographer Richard Avedon and his airy jump-images, which is perhaps inspired by Henri Cartier Bresson’s picture in which a man jumping over a puddle. A good illustration of the theory behind “the decisive moment”. My thought behind this was that I had my shots of Jennifer posing static and now I wanted some movement. Her skirt was kind of wavy and letting her hair down enhanced the movement.
The technique I did to get these images the most sharp, in spite of a great movement was to lower the ambient light in the studio. Since this was a daglysstudio was a little difficult to cover the windows, but all the lights were turned off and setting the light of the flash was turned off. The camera was set to continuous focus, or AI Servo on Canon, an aperture of f/14 and a shutter speed of 1/200 second at ISO200. The reason that the aperture is set so low is to eliminate most of the ambient light and only let the flash freeze the picture. All three images are captured with just a flash.
