It is back to the grindstone again after the Yule season and as promised a blog about the i.d. Hair photo shoot. i.d. Hair is a local business in Wimbledon who asked GilesG Photography to shoot some images to feature in their shop and on their brochure.Four models, two make up stylists, two hair stylists and Giles and his faithful Canon 5D Mark II creating magic in an evening. The hairstyles were stunning and original. Our aim was to ensure that out of a relaxed and informal yet professional atmosphere great shots were produced with effective lighting and sharp focus that allowed the hairstyles to stand out and be eye catching.
The evenin
g started with the intrepid trio (Giles, Kethry and myself) turning up at 6.30 to survey the space and set up lighting appropriate for the shoot. We met with the models Lenka, Isabel, Petra and Kaveena and also the makeup artists Diane and Annie. The space in which we had to shoot was quite small and intimate, which I believe helped to develop both the creative process and the relationship between Giles and the models. Each model had two changes of clothes and the brief was loosely based on the seasons, autumn and winter. Well done to Tee and the team; take a look at the result, judge for yourselves.
