BTS Laura black set

I used a simple 3 light setup with Laura on this set, 160cm Okta with 1200D Aputure from the front sideways, and 2 Nova 300 Aputure Panels with Softboxes as strip lights from the back.
All lights were equipped with grids, so I keep the spill of light to minimal and no light goes to the black curtains behind the model. The acrylic plates I us...

Vanessa white dress bts video

Here is a bts for the photos I uploaded recently. Very simple but effective 1 light setup, here I used an old fresnel 2kw tungsten light (warm color temperature). I used to do a lot of shoots with those kind of lights 2019-2021, till the LED lights from aputure got better and I had at least 600watt led :)
Those old 2kw Fresnels are nice to us...

Only natural light from the window :)

MC French Kiss bts pt 2

Still using just a reflector, as it was rather early in the day and the walls of the house also reflecting light back on the model here :)

Jpeg presets

Believe it or not, but I found a new hobby a week ago. I dont know how I got there, probably by accident, but I tried out one of my new 2025 presets in capture one on some of already finished retouched photos, which are jpeg. The direction was kinda nice, but it was not perfect. So I changed some things and now I have a bunch of presets extra fo...

C1 Presets 2025

Hey friends!
Here are the Capture One presets I have been using the last couple of month after coming from my winter vacation. As usual I was trying stuff out, turning colors left and right and kinda found some nice (for my taste) colors that I now wanna see everywhere on my photos :D

Tara white set

MC French Kiss bts pt1

Some bts of one of the looks we did last summer. I am gonna upload one look per clip as usual, although I dont have that much clip material for every outfit, so maybe some gonna be mixed together to keep it more interesting for the post :)

Outdoor shoots are often more challenging, cause you cant go simply with available light and have ...

Maison Close French Kiss campaign pt1

Last summer we did a shoot outdoor in South France. Not usual or favorite setup with all that harsh sunlight during the day :D with not that many possibilities to hide from it. Client wanted sunny and bright colors and vibe. BTS Videos coming next :)

MC AC purple sets bts

In this set photo you can see that I have 2 mainlights prepared for the shoot, a big softbox and a fresnel hard light. In the video I posted yesterday you can see how I first used a softbox light and then switched to fresnel.

Often when I know upfront that I wanna change light and we have enough lights available I would use the time whil...

MC AC purple set BTS

gonna write explanation for the lighting in another post :)

Tara beige black set bts

Tara was my first model to shoot in the new Gaia studio, shortly after or before its opening.
I only had 1 light with me in the studio and was looking for different options of lighting different areas in the studio. A very simple and effective way to have soft overall light is to bounce it from big white surfaces, in this case the ceiling. ...

Gonna post the final sets of the advent calender campaign with purple colors tomorrow :) Then we are done with this project.

MC AC bts set 7b

Another clip of the last setup, just a bit more of Clems posing :)

MC AC bts set 7

For this set we moved the reflective wall to the right side and used 2 lights to light into it to create different reflections, 1 with fresnel mount and 1 with simple reflector with barndoors.

Main light on the model is 1200D with big softbox and grid to keep the light away from the background.

MC AC bts set 6

In this clip we used the diy mirror foil wall which we set closed to the background to create more intense light reflections on it. Model was hit by a hard light with fresnel modifier with barndoors and we cut off the light to create a shadow line on the floor and also to keep the front light away from the background.
With this set we could l...
