Hey guys. I was talking to this girl who added me on Facebook, and when I told her I was leaving to pick up my new L, she inquired about a photoshoot. I told her that I would LOVE to do it, and that I would do it for free as long as she didn't have huge expectations.
She wants to to a SuicideGirls type of shoot...I dono if any of you are familiar with them, but basically they're punky style poster girls...
Anyways, I was wondering what techniques I should be using, to capture "sexiness". I always seem to be having a problem with not enough light...so using low light isn't an option, unless you have some suggestions to use...
We will be doing the shoot outside, so there should be plenty of sunlight. I'm thinking we need to find a big wall with graffiti...or even do it in a railyard....either that or we could go to the skate park...
One thing I'm not really that good at is posing. Like, I know what SHOULD look good..but whenever I get them to do it, it's not how I thought of it and I can't seem to figure out how the pros do it to make it look sexy. Any tips of making this SEXY would be marvelous. That's basically the main purpose of this is to make her look as appealing as possible. I'm not sure yet on her outfit, but I'm going to try and get her to have at least a few options, so I can dress her for the scene.
ANY advice you can give me would be great.
Oh, and PS - I'll be shooting mostly with my 70-200, with a few with the 50 in for good measure after all of the big shots are done just so I can get a bit of a different perspective. I really want to get the contrast and colours to stand out in this shoot. Always been a quality of SuicideGirls.
Thanks everyone, and sorry for the long post
