FLUORESCENT PORTRAIT #2

Fluorescent Portrait #2

I am just so in love with this lighting pattern right now. 

 So in love that I'm thinking about possibly starting a series with this kind of lighting pattern. Ohh and another thing I just got some new gear, so look forward to some product reviews in the next few days!

My apologies for being a little bit unreliable at times with posting new stuff on Sundays, but its for a good reason....I just started a beauty blog: http://youaresodamnbeautiful.blogspot.com/

what are you waiting for? :)

SOMETHING A LITTLE DIFFERENT

This Sunday I thought that I might try something a little different...

Here is a peek into my life over the past few days and the amazing things I saw and experienced:

1. Please Always Love, Something that has been on my mind lately that I wished more people practiced.

(This was one of the most interactive and engaging art pieces at the Art/Not Terminal Gallery in Westlake this Saturday.)

2.Blue Skies. The weather in Seattle has been amazing over the past few days and I feel like everywhere I look I see blue skies.

3. Flowers. Coinciding with blue skies it looks like spring has finally started to show with the blooming of all the beautiful flowers.

LIGHTING WITH ALTERNATIVE LIGHT SOURCES:

Fluorescent Light Strips

After going to school for 2 years I have learned quite a few techniques to achieve some pretty awesome lighting using different Light Sources. Such as those ugly fluorescent lights that you always see in office buildings...

Not only are fluorescent lights cheap and easy to assemble and disassemble, lets us not forget about all the cool reflexions you can get in your models eyes.

I've included a few behind the scenes shots to show you how simple the set is for these shots.

Below is a shot from the models point of view:
