Booty On Eames
🕑 Added 2025-11-08 16:00:31 +0000 UTCThis set with Georgia Brown was lit with my large Fresnel spot, similar to what was used during Hollywood's golden age of film noir.
I positioned the lamp very close to the camera to minimize shadows on the body, similar to a speedlight, but with the added softness of a larger light source.
And then I used a large rectangular softbox to illuminate the shadows ever so slightly to be able to have just a little detail present.
For this pale look, it really helped that Georgia has very light and clean skin, as every tiny blemish becomes visible under this kind of lighting.
The only caveat is that I had to selectively dampen the background, effectively reducing contrast (darkening the light and lightening the dark), because it had to much contrast with the shadows and structure of the background, which distracted from the model.
