Random Bloggy Goodness
Yesterday, I had another photoshoot with Polly Lockitt at her home studio.
It’s always a pleasure working with Polly and we got some great results as well as giving those Versace mules their debut, along with the Jimmy Choos!
The results can be found in my Headshots, Nudes and Fetish albums.
I had a lovely shoot with Polly Lockitt yesterday at her flat in Orpington. It started off even better as Polly has a habit of laying on something to eat for the photographer: in my case, a sausage bap! Fabulous!
The shoot was really a test shoot to see if we clicked artistically and we did: Polly’s a great model to work with and her photos really don’t do her justice. Some great nudes and some lovely lingerie shots. Time didn’t permit us to really go to town – that’ll teach us for nattering away during the shoot!
Some of the results are in the Lingerie, Artistic and Headshot albums.
What a lovely way to spend your lunch hour: on my way from London to the North-West, I popped in to see Emma Kate Dawson for a quick shoot (and a couple of cuppas!) today at her place in Burton-on-Trent.
It’s always a pleasure to see EKD and have a proper natter whilst firing off a few shots. The results are in the Art Nudes and Lingerie, Headshots and Artistic albums:
Well, despite my growing concern that I’m working with the fabulous Anita De Bauch too often – she seems to have become my ‘go-to model’ – I did a Hollywood-themed shoot at Chez De Bauch at the weekend. Anita was the perfect hostess, making me decent coffee and laying on some snacky goodness during the shoot too!
Edits are being done when I can find some time, but in the meantime, I’ve uploaded a couple to the Headshots and Lingerie pages:
Another great weekend: an early-ish start for me, as I had another photoshoot planned with the fab Anita De Bauch at her home in North London. She’s a great hostess as well as model: knowing I’m watching my weight and love my coffee, she’d laid on decent coffee and some very low calorie snacks to munch on during the shoot, which was on a Hollywood/Film Noir/Boudoir theme.
Some great results already despite my not really having much if any time for edits on Saturday afternoon before I headed over to Epsom for Dinner and a film: the really rather dull “Paranormal Activity 2″.
Sunday morning and off we went over towards Swindon for our second attempt at skydiving … and our second postponement, again due to weather. Grr! Trying again in October.
Back to Epsom before heading out for an 11.5 miles bike ride over the downs and country parks accompanying GT who’s doing another half marathon in a couple of weeks and hasn’t really trained. Trained? Trust me, she doesn’t need to: she treated it with disdain like a stroll to the shops. Awesome, as they say…
My photo of @AnitaDeBauch – “Black on Black” – has won a Highly Commended Award from ePHOTOzine http://t.co/XVU14K1
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!
