Josiane!

Shot these last night at the local marina without a flashgun. It refused working when I needed it, so all I could use to fill shadows is the 30D's on-board flash, Enjoy













John

You did a wonderful job on these with just the on board flash.

Thanx Stuart, I was so pissed and when I came home the flash worked with another set of batteries...

Who is Josieane to you John?

She is a very beautiful girl.

Nice pictures and well done.

Jono

Stuart; She is a local model, I met her at modelmayhem.com You can do the same, Just search in your area for models who are willing to shoot for prints or the files on CD. Josiane is getting a CD from me with all originals and edited files.

Thanx Jono! :)

Oh, and I figured you also wanna see this:

Wonderful set of shots John, she must be delighted to have these for her portfolio

Very nice series !! She should be very happy with the cd.

Glad you like these! :) We'll see, I already sent her a few in email and still working on them. I also used a few of these for my portfolio on MM... I am hopping to do another shoot with another model next Friday or Saturday.

Now that last shot is excellent, she has a gorgeous pair of legs.

Time for a cold shower.

I really like the first three!! Well done. Wow...on board flash, amazing!

I should of had an assistant with me who could hold a neutral bounce plate or some sort, that way the light would spread on her face equally, creating less shadows. Thanx for looking...

Stuart; It was fun working with her, she tried hard to pose for me. Why don't you look up some local models on modelmayhem.com ?! There are lot's of talented girls in the UK who are willing to shoot for CD or prints. You have the gear to do it...

i didn't realise they had that here, it's a really good idea for both the models and the photogs

Portraiture isn't really my thing.

I prefer the great outdoors.

Stuart, these were all shot outdoors! Sometimes you have to step out of your comfort zone to move up the ladder, or work with these sweet girls.
:curtsey:

Sharon, Modelmayhem is international, I had a quick look and there are models avail for shoots in Scotland too.

John - just looked at modelmayhem - what a good site - thanks for the info ~ John

You did a super job John, a lovely model and some great poses. Thanks for sharing them.

Stuart, I have faith in you man. You can do it and I won't tell!


Jan; Nothing like a free model all to yourself, and follows your instructions and not someone else's ...
Her friend also wants to shoot with me, but she has 3 big tattoos on her body and I wanted a swim-wear shoot with her. We'll see and I've yet to see images of her.
