Poncho & sparkles...Part 2 of the Style Skin Shoot

Justyna shown me her unique and eclectic style with a warmer and equally more playful outfit that just featured in her blog.
I loved playing with the shapes and the different textures that she was wearing...We ll meet again for another interesting collaboration !

Part 1 of StyleSkin shoot

About 2 years ago I had done a series of portraits of this young lady called Justyna and we had a lot of fun, she is a creative woman and had lots of ideas on the day. We shot it on Leeson Street and at the side of Stephens Green.

Both now more mature of 2 years, and still as equally playful, we just did a shoot in studio. Part 1 revealed here. Her blog is only 6 months old, quite impressed at what she achieved in this length of time on her own !

Preview of a pin up shoot ...

Oh my ! it was steamy in the studio last friday ! Monica gave us her best angles while Elaine Cahill from www.elainesbeauty.ie worked her wonders to do a modern take on the classic 1950s pin up look.

I originally wanted the shoot to be very technical and driven by this beautiful classic lighting ( I was mostly influenced by Matthew Rolston who is a genius at lighting and who's known for that retro look like Aguilera's Candyman videoclip which is so so eye candy, regardless of whether you like the song...does anyone know whether they found 2 fab lookalikes for the brunette and the red head or was it her too ??) but Monica wouldn't have none of sitting still sort of session I intended so she kept me on my toes to follow her in action !! In the end I barely changed the light throughout the different set ups and I still got some lovely lighting ! 

More to come soon, if you behave :-D
