Photoshoot

On Thursday, we commenced work with the first shoot. Model James Wells was used and some very interesting pieces were shot. We perceived it as an important step in continuing to put the magazine together so all involved were relieved when the final shot was taken and we started to pack up.

I started to shoot on a dark grey backdrop. However, I couldn't get the lighting exactly how I wanted and quickly became frustrated. It was quite worrying that an hour into a two hour studio slot the whole concept was changed. Very pleased with end result though.

On hand to help were my dear friends Chris and Kelli. It also helped that James is also a close friend (knowing the model makes it easier to shoot them.) We all casually chipped in with the styling and Chris filmed a short and a longer more in-depth feature regarding the origins of Modisch.

The short can be seen in the previous post and the second video will be posted next week.

Below are a few taster images from the shoot. They haven't been edited yet so are still quite rough around the edges. Shooting in high contrast has made the broad spectrum of colours we used really come into their own.
