My work as a portrait photographer sees me shooting various types of portraits from location to studio based and today was a studio shoot to create some high end beauty photography for a magazine submission. Sam was the model for the shoot and she is heavily tattooed which worked well for the images we had in mind and the style of magazine we were aiming for. All the shots were simply lit and on a black background using three Profoto B1x heads with various modifiers for different accesnt lighting. Here is a sample of the images we created and they were published within a week of shooting in two different magazines including a front cover!
