Doel with four models, one make-up artist and a co-photographer

I had the pleasure to work with a few models in Doel. Melissa (the co-photographer) contacted the models, she choose the environment, she booked the make-up artist. So what was my job ? Turn up and take some pictures. Sometimes life can be very simple.

It was a while since I picked up my camera and did an outside shoot but luckily I quickly remembered how to set up the light (and let it blow over by the wind). The result was a broken softbox after 5 minutes of shooting with no spare in the care.

So I had to choose between a shoot-through umbrella and a reflector for the remaining models.
Was it the stress of a co-photographer (and a very very good one), the obligation to rethink the pictures I wanted (because of the different light-solution), the four different styled models and the very good make-up done by Julie Indegank ? I think the combination of all those things made me to work harder and as a result I’m quite happy with the pictures.
The first model was Tatiana Triest and the others were (in that order) : Mary Avetissian, Nina Van Moppes and Martyna Majchrzak
