Hello everyone, my dear friends in the Black and White community. How are you all? I hope everything is going well over there.
It's me, Menti, back with another blog and another photoshoot.
Today's guest for our camera was a trader. He had a conference in a few days and was giving a speech, so his program manager told him to go to a photo studio and get some photos taken.
He came to me and asked me to take a few photos of him. After we took the photo he wanted, he really liked the photoshoot and said he had never been to a photo studio before and would love to have more photos taken.
Without hesitation, when I saw such a handsome model in front of me, I took the opportunity and started taking photos.
One of the photos that I really liked was the one I put last as the final photo. A close-up portrait, because I had provided good lighting with details. This was a golden opportunity to show off my model's beautiful face.
We continued to take photos with different frames. I asked him what color the banner background was that he wanted to design his photo on. Since he said it was black and dark, I used my own black curtain for the background so that I wouldn't face any particular challenges during the design. Although today, with the significant advancement of photo design software, cutting photos and separating backgrounds is possible with just a simple click.
I used three lights. My first light, which was a key light, I aimed at my model at a 45-degree angle with two stops higher than the side lights, and one light to the background. I also used a separator light from behind my model.
I set my aperture to 5.6 to get a sharper photo. Because of the lights I have, I have to set the shutter speed to 1/160, so the ISO in my studio is usually between 50 and 100.
He had a European and unique face and his name was Armin. Armin was a trader who I later heard was very professional and taught this.
I wish him and all my friends that their trades always hit their targets and are profitable.
Thank you to all of you who were with me until the end of the post. I hope you have a good day.
Until we meet again, goodbye.
