Haven’t made the time to blog in too long. Here’s something new. we’ve been busy retouching some BIG projects lately.
Shot this a month or two ago. Built a rain machine and off we went. LIGHTS camera and action. Love the way the lights pick up the rain and texture of the water splashes against her skin.
Off to Hawaii tomorrow, can’t wait!

New Work: HEAT
Posted by Dean Bradshaw | Filed under Fashion Photography, Lighting, People Photography, Portfolio, concept photography
I’ve been shooting lots in the studio lately.
Here’s something we shot recently. This was mostly an excercise in lighting, pushing the boundaries of what I had tried before and then adding a little bit extra. I shot a whole series and this is only one of the standout frames. One of the issues shooting under such controlled lighting is that many of the frames only differ almost imperceptivly in facial expression and framing, so it’s often difficult to choose a favourite! We had tried this same shot with a fan from the right but I really like the simple symmetry so in the end decided against it.It is composed of about 5 lights – can you guess where they are?
I really enjoy the studio in that all the gear is within easy reach and I can throw as much light around as I want, shaping it with grids, octaboxes, beauty dishes and all manner of reflectors. However, I often feel it lacks atmosphere and a sense of place. In this shot I added a background element to provide some interest and depth to otherwise stark surroundings – the image being more conceptual than something based in reality.
I have a huge backlog of shoots to process, so stay tuned for more uploads throughout the next few weeks.
Desert Rose

New portfolio work shot yesterday evening. This concept is what happens when you’re stuck in suburbia for any length of time and musings of scented Chai tea and bustling markets enter your mind – I think I’m going to self diagnose myself with ‘wanderlust’.
See more in the series after the jump…

Experimental fashion shoot
Posted by Dean Bradshaw | Filed under Fashion Photography, Lighting, People Photography
Spent the latter part of yesterday shooting some experimental work. Ed Swinhoe and I scoped out a new location and at the same time helped out Curtin Uni fashion designer Chris Hancy with some of his most recent fashion deviations.
Check it.
