A great shoot at the weekend with the multi-talented Anita De Bauch, dodging the rain showers to shoot some street fashion latex-wear along the Thames as well as some lifestyle shots over a well-earned lunch.
It’s marvelous working with such a talented and professional model who’s also such a nice person!
It was also good to use my new Canon EOS 7D and the Speedlight as a ‘strobe’ off-camera.
Updates can be found in the Fetish and Lifestyle galleries.
International fetish and art nude model Anita De Bauch is now using some of my images in her main website portfolio.
I’m really flattered!
OK, that’s August accounted for: a shoot in Kent (outside and inside) and another shoot (street fashion, latex and mainstream lifestyle) with the fabulous Anita De Bauch, who’s also left me some great feedback over on Purestorm:
“I shot with Richard and Madame Bink at Light Spot Studio on 30th July and would happily do so again. He was punctual, friendly, polite and professional, and we were both delighted with the photos. I would highly recommend Richard to anyone and am already planning my next shoot with him!”
In other news, I’ve ordered some new kit: a Canon EOS-7D, Canon EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS lens and a Canon Speedlite 580EX II flashgun for external work, mainly, though I may use it with my Bowens Gemini 200 Kit lights too as a trigger and bounce/fill-in flash.
On Saturday, I had the studio shoot with Anita De Bauch and Madame Bink at LightSpotStudio, London that I’d previously mentioned. Anita works internationally as a fetish and art nude model. Bink works all over the place throughout Europe as an art nude model and the two of them have worked together before.
Both were really very professional, really friendly and a great laugh and they were simply phenomenal with their imagination and posing. Nothing was too hard or difficult and the poses they created were stunning. My job was so easy as both were so natural and so imaginative. I would thoroughly recommend both models and I can’t wait to work with Anita and Bink again! Oh and Anita makes fab cookies!
Images have been added to the Headshots, Art Nude and Fetish albums.
The next shoot I have arranged this month will be something akin to herding cats for me: it’s the first time I’ll have shot two models working together as well as separately.
Both models are experienced alternative, fetish and lingerie models working internationally so I’m expecting some fabulous results! They’ve worked together before as well so that should make my job a lot easier and getting the poses I want won’t be a problem, I’m sure.
Back at the end of March, I did another shoot with the fabulous Marlyn Lindsay: a mixture of location shots and some shots at her studio.
I’m very pleased with the results, which can be seen in my Fetish portfolio.
Marlyn is another model I’ll be working with again and again!
I had a late evening photoshoot with the absolutely gorgeous Emma Kate Dawson at her hotel room in North London as she was down here for a few days combining a number of shoots.
Despite the location giving us a few issues, we had a great time working on a few themes and having a chat like we were old mates. She’s a complete joy to work with – very friendly, very enthusiastic, a great laugh and so professional too. I wouldn’t hesitate to work with her again and we already have idea for our next studio shoot. I can see why she’s so busy!
She’s left me some lovely feedback on Purestorm too:
“Oh!!! Where to start! I haven’t laughed so much in ages!! Richard and I got on like a house on fire! We shot at a location that we thought may be a mistake but with everything going wrong it just made us all the more determined to get something. The shoot was great and really perked me up! He had some great ideas and is a photographer who knows what he wants. He’s brilliant to get along with and respectful. I cant wait to shoot with him again!!! “
I’ve added some shots to the Lingerie, Headshots and Lifestyle portfolios and here’s a message for someone who’s still trying to cause trouble:
Saturday saw a shoot with Marlyn Lindsay and it was an absolute pleasure! She’s a true professional and a joy to ‘work’ with: a “can do” mentality with a wardrobe to die for!
Not only that, she was great fun too and I even got coffees and teas (and biscuits and an offer of food)!
We’ve already got some ideas for further shoots and I would recommend her in an instant to anyone wanting to work with a fantastic model. The first model I’ve ever got through an entire memory card with (and more): the poses, outfits and ideas were coming thick and fast. If you’re a photographer, do yourself a favour and book her up!
She also left me some great feedback on Purestorm:
“Had an absolutely great shoot with Richard today. From the outset, he makes you feel at ease and comfortable. Had some really great ideas and the shoot just flew by.
I would more than happily recommend Richard to any model, he really is a joy to work with.
Thank you for a great afternoon, I look forward to seeing the results and working with you again soon.
Marlyn x”
Some of the results can be seen in my Lingerie and Art Nude, Artistic, Fashion and Pin-Up portfolios.
I had a most enjoyable day yesterday doing a shoot with Playboy model Jo-Louise Kelsey. Despite suffering with the flu, she was the consummate professional: natural, ready to discuss ideas and superb in front of the camera (and not to mention stunning!). It was good to work with a truly professional model. Some of the results can be seen in the art nude, lingerie, lifestyle and headshots sections of this site: see my portfolio.
