Over the last few months, at the start ( or end ) of my shoots I have started to shoot more images for my second on going project (my first being the Book of Influence), this project is my ‘Towel Series’ ( very much inspired by many photographers who have done this – but mostly inspired by Mario Testino)
We shot two looks this was the first – the second look was part of a story being published in Dark Beauty magazine and will be posted over on the Amersham Studio blog also. They are some pretty crazy fun images – so be sure to check them out !
Huge thank you to Simon for helping out at Studio and yes the Broncolor app for the lights was amazing, I can not wait to play around with them some more !! All of the BTS images are also Simon’s images – Photographed on a X-T1 & 35mm.
I used a Fuji X-T1 for my images combined with the stunning 50-150mm lens. All exif data will be on the images via the SmugMug Gallery – ‘Towel Series’
