Just finished this one and quite pleased with it.

On Tuesday we had a session with Zoi who had flown over from Amsterdam for a couple of days. The purpose of the session was to photograph some latex outfits for the designer but I also wanted to experiment with some new ideas as we have one of London’s leading portrait and wedding photographers visiting us next week to have a ‘bump’ image taken. Think some will be done on the 10×8! The latex images are still being work on so they will be posted next week some time. In the meantime this is one of the images of Zoi I did after the latex session. Hasselblad loaded with TriX which was deved in TMax. Daylight only and some post processing to get close to the look I am after.

Faye and I spent last Thursday photographing some new images for our Contemporary Boudoir Collection in a stunning location situated on the cliffs of Fife overlooking the river Forth. While we were there C asked us if I would mind taking a photograph of  her grand daughter in a white dress that she had worn herself as a child. In fact I think she also said it was worn be her mother as well so a pretty old but beautiful  frock. During a break in shooting our model we set aside 15 minutes to create some images of C’s grand daughter. I already knew where I would take the image so while Faye did some creative hair work I set up the Hasselblad, my old 500CX with  150mm chrome lens and loaded with TMax100. The location was the long bedroom hallway which has the most wonderful light streaming through the floor to ceiling windows which are draped with heavy weight curtains with large tapestry’s on the facing wall. I shot 3 rolls of film here while she posed like a true professional model even managing to hold the pose for the 20th of a second exposures. These are my favourite images from this session but once we returned to the bedroom where C and our model were waiting Faye created a further series of images which she will be posting here and on Facebook. The exposure was 20th of a second @ f4. Processed in TMax developer.
