From your feedback to the latest shot

alaios

Dear all,
this is the latest shot I wanted to share here. All the previous work you have seen from me here it was shot many months ago so any feedback I was getting in the mean time from you could not be applied to any of these shots (since these were already shot).

This changes though from today, all the feedback you have been giving me the last months I was keeping it in notes that I tried to apply in the latest photoshoot I am presenting today here.

For that I had to imitate that I have a client that comes at my place for four hours and expects some shots from me at the end. You will see below the shots I would think I should deliver to my customer. According to my scenario-exercise my client is a classical singer that needs more shots showing a „performance“ and not just some nice headshots.
This was a four hour session I run. For this session I had full control of everything, cloth selection, lighting and the artistic idea. I was brainstorming to find an idea I wanted and then I was using lighting (I have a very simple setup of one light only) and the coaching to get the feeling I wanted to have.

You will see below 21 shots which I liked the most, unfortunately I could not reduce the number of shots even more (I share that knowing that this is my negative trait sharing so many photos). I hope though you might still give me a general sentence of what you see and think for this set.

To start with this was the place I had to shoot



and this was the first shot I got on that day.




I would like to thank you in advance for your reply
Regards
Alex

Your work just goes to show that even with one light, in my opinion, you can do some really nice work. Nice stuff in there for such a small/simple setup. Your client is happy, yes?

There are some lovely captures here and great ideas. I really like how you've kept the light off unnecessary areas.

Holy crap.
A person who took the constructive criticism, learned from it, politely asked questions and applied it successfully? I've seen it all now!

Some good stuff here.

Good job Alex.
