Callum & Claire of Excite Clothing were back in the studio today to shoot some more images for the Excite e-shop, this time for the plus size range. Our model for the day was Jenna who’d travelled over from Manchester for the shoot and she did a sterling job for us. Jenna is very photogenic and I really would have liked to have done some beauty portraits of her but no time for that as we went through the clothing range. In the end we finished about half an hour early so I suggested we make the most of the autumn sunshine and shoot a few impact shots at the back of the studio. We nipped round the back with Jenna sporting a knitted poncho and within 15mins had some killer shots in the bag with even enough time to shoot another set on the spiral staircase. I would’ve liked another light for the staircase shot to use as a kicker (my normal set up) but because I’d only taken a single studio light and 24″ softlighter for the outdoor shots, that’s all I had to play with. For the outdoor shots I made the bright sunshine the secondary light source with the softlighter as key and by moving around I  could also include some  very strong flare for a different look. Here are a few shots from the shoot.
