p.1 #1 · Mel's maternity shoot.

Hey mates

how we all doing?

A little shoot from Sunday. Mel contacted me a few days before saying she wanted a couple of B&W maternity shots. I said sure and we shot for an hour.

If anyone is interested B&W conversion done with The Gorman Action, i have Silver efex and other means of converting but really like this action.

Anyway here's the pics any CC welcome.

I wish his other eye was more visible, I even re-shot it but her expression was really sweet here so went with this one.

Below image is the setup for the following images.
large octa camera left, stripbox behind her camera right, just to separate the belly from the background.
Softbox for hair light, and a large silver reflector to add some fil.

Framing was too tight here but I still liked it.

Nice series!

#4 is classic and well done. Love the humour in 5 & 6.

It's a pretty tight crop in #9, but the expressions are great.

Lovely stuff. I really enjoyed these.

On my monitor I can see grey marking across the top of 6. Play around with your contrast/brightness settings and you'll see what I mean and can correct them.
