Karen’s home studio portraits

Hey all,

Something a bit closer to home today. Let’s take a look at a few photos of our very own Karen (my better half, for those that don’t know) who was good enough to model for me on a recent Sunday afternoon “lighting test” session:

We’ve been so busy recently that we haven’t had a chance to do anything like this for some time – but after recently buying a few new light modifiers for our studio lighting, I was keen to test the waters and see what we could do with them. Karen stepped in as my model for the afternoon, and we proceeded to “have a play” with some different lighting setups… and this is what we got.

A bit of fun, some hair pulling and head scratching to get things dialled in, and I think some lovely pictures at the end. The first one is our favourite right now, and we’re looking forward to a big acryllic version of this arriving any day now, which should look great on the wall. Big thanks to Karen for modelling for me and being so very patient while I worked out best setups for shooting in our new space at home.

I think you’ll agree she scrubs up pretty good, no?

Hope you enjoyed looking!

Rob.
