At New York Fashion week i was shooting for several mags and getty images

i had several briefs one mag wanted the standard reportage shot, the other makeup beauty shot and getty wanted something up close and personal

so i had to satisfy many briefs using different styles

style1, reportage stand back just shoot what happens in available light
Image

standard beauty shot flat lighting, used a modified fong spehre made it more directional lighting, with a tungsten gel
Image

my up close and personal
available light tungsten from side, balanced with fong sphere with tungsten gel
Image
im able to post this one because i didnt upload this one to getty

Are you sure you didn't take the first image from Hendrix's "Electric Ladyland" album cover?

The last one is my pick.

Great stuff Wendell - is it my imagination or are the whites of the model's eyes in no.3 just too white/been 'cleaned' in PS??

thankyou all

on 2nd thought geoff i have dodged the eyes too white in the 3rd shot
but im sure number 2 bothers me more i desaturated the skintone too much
