headshot and beauty photographer Wakefield: Headshots photographer for Jayanne
Beauty photographer Wakefield: Jayanne is just getting back into modelling after the recent birth of her daughter and decided that she’d like to concentrate on beauty headshots and fashion until her body gets back into shape. So, after my name was recommended by a couple of other models and one of her photographer friends, Jayanne booked in for a shoot. We created a series of stunning beauty portraits using a simple lighting set-up with some very soft lighting from a large octabox which has a quality of light like nothing else. I much prefer the octabox to a beauty dish unless I’m needing a slightly more contrasty light. I then used a 1m square ‘Waefer’ feathered across Jayanne to create a Rembrandt lighting effect for some gorgeous, low key, moody shots before switching to my classic headshot set-up with the light positioned directly overhead, combined with reflectors for shadowless lighting. We ended the session using a hot light mixed with a couple of studio heads fitted with deep reflectors, gridded for tighter control, to create some images with a bit of a swinging 60s appeal. The whole shoot was done using a single prime lens, the Nikkor 135 f/2 DC which is just awesome for a shoot of this style
