Catwalk in Bedfordview

Posted by on Tuesday, 3 November, 2009

This is a late entry but better that than never. About a month back, we were asked to do a fashion shoot for Candice. She owns the “Rock La Belle” fashion label and hosted her 3rd fashion show at the Bowls Club in Bedfordview. Yes, a juxposition of the old Colonial sport of Lawn Balls with the young trendy African fashion leaves a good smile on my face. The 3rd fashion show showcased Candice’s latest work placed in an a theme showcasing “trendy with a touch of sprinkles”.

Miss India Gauteng 2009 – Ayushi Chhabra

Posted by on Friday, 25 September, 2009

I got to finally meet the winner of the Miss India Gauteng and Her name is Ayushi Chhabra. She also took part in the Miss India SA final and came in a close second. I got it touch with her and planned a shoot on the weekend. I started hunting for various locations and Sasank pointed out the Centurion Golf Estates. It turned out to be the perfect place to do the shoot for her. A simple plan really, doing the shoot with a white dress and then a white sari using the magnificent backdrops of the estate.

The shoot was done by Sasank and I using two slightly different methods:

Me: I used the zoom lens for variation with the external flash for light fill. The depth of field (DOF) was kept high (usually at 4 and then at 8 ) to have more of the background in focus with her. This also allowed for ultra-sharp focus to be possible. I used a polarizer filter to get more crisp colour as well.  I did not use the flash in all the shots where the natural fill light is sufficient.

Sasank: Used the fixed 50mm ultra-wide prime without flash to capture the natural ambience. This had a softer tonal effect and and provided the dreamier look. This had the best effect at close-up focus.

We used a gold reflector to add further light to add detail in the shadows.
