I had another Zivity set go up last night, once again with Sarah Prankha.
Usually when I’m doing a shoot for Zivity, I have some grand story that I’m trying to tell. Some weird concept that probably only makes sense to me. Well, this time the concept was pretty simple.
Incredibly gorgeous girl lounging around in a bikini and it’s so hot she decides to take a dip in a private pool.
Sometimes it’s the simple stories that work best. 🙂
So please check out Summer on the Ski Slopes and let us know what you think:
And now to break some of the photo magic. Despite the title, the shoot didn’t actually occur on a ski slope. It was actually shot in my own backyard. I happen to live on a pretty steep hill, but I have my own pool. This is an example of how you can disguise a shoot by using creative camera angles. We wanted to present the idea that Sarah was in a remote location, enjoying the summer all by her lonesome. We accomplished this by keep very close angle of her with a wide angle lens in the pool which makes the pool look larger than it actually is (18 feet) and by making sure that all the wide shots showed as much greenery and sky as possible, simulating the look of a remote locale.
The shoot was done on a particular hot and bright summer day, however it was cloudy outside which cools down the color temperature of ambient sunlight just a bit and diffuses it. An on camera flash was used for fill which was pointed directly at the model. While this washes her out slightly, it does create a very summery look for the light. The pictures were then processed in Adobe Lightroom 3.0 to get a slightly muted color effect.
