When we first got in touch – via Instagram – I had no idea that Alex ‘Lexi’ Kelly was on the TV.  When we got chatting more it turned out she is on the current series of Britain’s Next Top Model

We enlisted the help of fantastic make up artist Penny Grimley to create a wonderful strong look to match the lighting that I had in mind.

The shoot was mixed up with a  couple of looks – but still based around a strong lip colour and strong contrasting lighting.

We used two RF60  Cactus Speed lights to create all these looks, one light was modified using the Roundflash with a homemade Snoot made from the Lee Filters BlackWrap for the second light to create the highlights from which the lighting style was designed around.

We used a mix of the XF 90mm & the XF 50-140mm Fujinon lenses on the Pre-Production Fuji X-Pro2 camera for this shoot.
