Solloh Trial Shoot in the Park

Today I was pleasantly surprised when my sister turned up with a model I'm currently working with, "Solloh" - Fashion and Beauty Pageants, as I didn't expect her to come for a shoot at such short notice. She's going au naturale and lovin it! No post production/editing was done on this job.. Here are just a few of the photo's..

Anyway for me this meant I could proceed with the shoot I'd been planning..

                                            75-300mm telephoto zoom lens

 Minor setback though as I was not expecting strong sunlight according to the weather forecast for today.. I therefore had to improvise in order to get the best photo's possible from my subject.. Hence I've named this post ".......trial shoot"

                                                           Keep it au naturale!

Whilst browsing online I found several images which inspire me.. these ones stood out to me.. so for the record, "I didn't take the photos"!!

Test Shoot of Solloh

My sister helped to put me in touch with a young lady I knew from years ago.. She has grown into a model occasionally participating in beauty pageants.. I'm privileged to be able to shoot her as she has beautiful hair, is a natural in front of camera and also has some photography experience. I look forward to more work with her somemore.
