Couple shots from a recent lingerie shoot

[Alleh Lindquist]

Turns out I have come to a point where I feel my portfolio has taken a different direction than I want to go with my photography so I don't plan to do these types of shoots any longer. I far prefer outdoor adventure and sports advertising.

what are you using for light? is that a strobe with a honey comb grid or snoot on it?

 

[skieur]

Whatever you are using for lighting is insufficient.

You can't see any lingerie... Is this an effort to represent a certain brand or chain, because the lingerie is poorly represented due to the major underexposure.... Or is it just to show sexy women in lingerie, in which case I'd still like to see a better-lit subject.

If you go to his flickr, he's got other shots where it's lighter =).

the lingerie is poorly represented due to the major underexposure....

Its not underexposure, its lighting... there is a big difference.


I do quite like the poses and the light source... so as images they are fine, but if they are for lingerie promotional puposes then they don't really work imo.

Yes it was a strobe with a 10 degree grid. For everyone that thinks the images are underexposed you need to go read some books and learn a little more about lighting before you should start to critique it.

They are not commercial shots so displaying the lingerie was not a priority. I wanted to get dark moody shots with harsh shadows hence why I used only one flash with a grid.

I love the lighting on these! That first one is striking! Nice work.
