Studio Stuff I

Well the new studio is about 85% set up. It is ready for the work of photography, but the niceties are not yet done. We still need to create the dressing area and get make-up lights on the vanity. We are still looking for some chairs that will pull double duty as reception and modeling chairs. I'll know them when I find them. Some wall-mounted shelves are still in order, as well as a guest coat rack and a curtain to put across the wall to act as a buffer in case someone walks in while a model is in a state s/he does not desire to share with others (Mick or the landlord are the only possibilities, and I'm not worried about Mick). A Do Not Disturb sign is probably a good idea.

Here are a few shots of the setup:

These are the first real shots taken in the new studio space. Again, I was just messing around using myself as a model as I got myself familiar with the space.

Lighting that black, black, black boa is a real challenge. Trying to get some definition on it without blowing out everything else takes some thought, and so I have to try it. That, and it feels good...

I am pretty much open for business now!
