Did a session with a traveling model last weekend at a shared studio. These digital shots were done with my D700 and either a 105 macro or the 85 1.8 D. Lights were alienbees - some with a parabolic umbrella key + softbox kicker, others with a single gridded beauty dish, and still others with little ambient light and an LED light string.

I also did a one on one session with her after the shared studio shoot using my YashicaMat 124g and ACROS and HP5 film. Just sent that out today for develop/scan.
This was my first figure/nude shoot, so any comments welcome. I'm pretty happy with them, but definitely looking to learn.

Your retouching has really brought out her 'beat to shit crackwhore' side, I like it.
>>
Nice pics OP!
In unrelated news I'd really like to see /p/ have a serious dick pic thread. Artistic, well-lit, brilliantly composed, well-framed dick pics. With and without bokeh balls.
>>
>>2702596
why so hard lighting in most of the pics? i find all of them pretty unintresting. its really hard to make good black backgroung only nudes. These are just boring.
>>
>>2702626
I do headshots and portraits with more typical "beauty" lighting and since this was a figure-style workshop, the hard lighting and black background were really meant for the light v shadow look or isolated body contours. Some I like better than others with the hard light. For instance, I like #2 and #6's hard lighting and pose a whole lot.

thanks anon

>>2702605
I don't know why no one else have said so, but this one is clearly the best of the lot.
It's on a whole other level.
Good job.

The irony being that this tattoo is pretentious as fuck.

>>2702672
Yes I see that, but I don't have much in the way of photoshop skills, just lightroom adjustments. I'll see if I can't clone those out somehow.

Thanks. Here's the color, less contrasty version but her gaze doesn't have as much impact as the B&W one. Unfortunately, like the other anon said, there are some distracting hairs on her breast that aren't as distracting here (IMO) because the bulk of her hair over her shoulder doesn't disappear into shadow.

This would definitely have benefit from more DoF to get both eyes in focus.
>>
>>2702806
I agree. If had been shooting this session totally alone, I may have experimented with some shutter dragging to get more DoF so I could collect the lighting effect from the strings without washing them out with the off-camera flash.
