Light Dance

Light Dance

I've been trying to work with people who have more of an acrobatic or dance background to try to make my art more kinetic and interesting.

And Nicolle has her own ideas. Thus, it was a bang-up combo.

Naturally, the toplessness might offend people on flickr, therefore I have to tag as 'moderate' and instantly reduce the number of possible viewers. I don't care. Mostly. But I figure that if you are so easily offended by boobies that a topless woman would make you unable to appreciate my pictures, you probably won't actually understand them anyway.

Now, if I could only also cause the people who see the topless girl but not the art to go away.. Hm.

Black Dress

Black Dress

I always tell noob lady models to bring a nice dress to start out with. See, if you are working with somebody who's got a laundry list of experience, they flip *on* and are ready to go. But even people who are used to other kinds of performing can have issues with photo posing.

So, they'll show up all tight and anxious and stuff. And the last thing they need is some weird-looking guy with a camera telling them to get out the undies and start posing all tarty. They'll look and decide they've got nasty thunder-thighs or wrinkles or something and get even more uncomfortable. And lightpainting or other more intricate work is very slow moving. So having the model pose in a dress is a good place to start. It's not boring street clothes, but it's not a lacy nearly-nothing either.

Also, the model needs to get used to how I work.

So, yes, this was from the first part of the shoot, where we were just getting going.

Strobist details:One 285HV with a blue gel on the MPEX backlight stand for the backlight. A bare 622 as key to the left, a bare 285HV as fill to the right. All optically triggered off of a 144PC in the E-P3's hotshoe.

Pink boa and sunglasses

Pink boa and sunglasses

I'd consider this vaguely Lady gaga-esque.

The sunglasses, pink corset, feather boa, and gloves especially.

Strobist details: blue gel 285HV to the back. Front left has a 622 into a brolly box. Front right has a 285HV into a shoot-through umbrella with a double CTO gel. All optically triggered.
