AurumLight Beauty & Fashion Workshop with OlegTi

That was a great information packed weekend!
We worked in depth to understand and learn how to precisely control your light and make absolutely stunning portraits In-Camera without the need for Photoshop!

If you missed it, don’t worry as we will come back in that format in the future.

These were two separate events aimed to cover different material, focused on working with model and studio lighting.
The quality, direction, distance and power – you might think that these are basics but I assure you it is more important than you would expect.

Starting with simple yet effective, going through the complex, up to the creative and unique setups.
We worked with a hard light trying to avoid cutting corners with a “Big-Softbox-up-high-on-45-deg” scenario.

Most of the photos below were done with just Einsten heads equipped with a standard 8,5″ reflector additionally with ROSCO frosted, conversion or coloured gels.

Combine that with the Mixed Lighting Setup we presented some time ago, here on the blog and you unleash an unlimited creative application in both Beauty & Fashion genres.

Models: Jemma Jade Saare & Jay Jessop

All the best!

B-Movie “THE TRAP”

Hi there!

Today I would like to share a few images from a short series called
the B-Movie “THE TRAP”,
which we did earlier this year in Brussels, Belgium under the eye of Drew Gardner.
It was a pleasure to work with great group of professional people, below you can see the effects of our effort on the day!

The concept was to bring the climate of the classic B-movies and Si-Fi thrillers.

In our story the girl must go through the forest to search for her dog that happens to be a decoy purposely enticed by …

“Ju-els” & “Roman Beauty”

Hi there,

Today we would like to share a few images from our latest shoot which we did with the same team of people who worked on “La-Vander Shadow” post below.

This time we went for “Roman Beauty” look:

And a classic “Ju-els” beauty look:

This is second time that we have used the Paul C Buff Alien Bees lights B1600 – we will keep them for the tests for another month. So far I am really surprised and pleased with the quality and ease of use.
I have read a lot about the colour constancy issue but we haven’t experienced any this as yet

Hope you like it, please watch this space there is more to come.

Cheers

“LA-VANDER SHADDOW”

Aurum Lighting Studio have great pleasure in welcoming on board  Katkinoko who is an extra talented wig designer and professional but not only that a fantastic person.

We strongly recommend her to anyone who is looking for not only a team player but who has amazing creative input!
(we also love her rates… but be quick I have a feeling she will become very busy quite soon!)

Below you can see Kat in action as she is preparing the gorgeous model Cristina who you have already met ‘on the roof’ a few posts below

We had a very busy Saturday, and I still have loads of material to edit, so watch that space there is more to come.

And here you can see the effects of our effort on the day:
