Most of you has hopefully already seen my work for the danish strip & event bureau called 'Charlotte Schou Strip & Event'. Throughout the years, I've done multiply shoots for that business with all the girls - however, back in december 2023 it came to me; "Why not ask you people if you got any preferences or wishes to with whom I should do a collab and create some epic unique shots? ππ€·π»ββοΈ"
So I did that! π₯³
It later resulted in two new shoots with two of the girls - and one of the series can be watched right here and here. βΊοΈ - And now the time has come to premiere for you one more set of photos, but with a third lady.. πβπ»
Say hello to Camille Karina!π₯
She asked if I could help her do some sort of christmas calendar thing for her own profile - so the theme obviously had to be christmas, however we could easily spice it up (specially considered what sort of content she normally do.. π
ππ)
If you haven't checked out the 'Behind The Scenes'-video I released already, I highly suggest you click here and do so. π€ Eventhou there's really not much of technical details to go through, it still shows a bit of how chilled and fun it was - AND showing it was all done in natural light from the sun. π

(Above; I have illustrated on the photo above, how the light came in from a huge window to my right, resulting in a super smooth light on Camille, with no harsh shadows or anything. Just wonderful and all done without the use of a reflector!)
The other setting we did was in her bedroom in which there was some great lighting aswell - however, since she wanted to spice things up a notch, we decided to close down all curtains and make use of my two Nanlite Pavotubes. π
By combining complimentary colors (such as red and teal for instance) you can boost an already good looking photo, to the max.
I've made this .gif showing what it means.

(An illustration of what 'Complimentary colors' are. You can also remember it as "what is opposite of each other"-colors π)
As mentioned it's important to work with the right colors, to make it smooth for the viewers to look at. Check out the .gif above. Notice how the two dots keeps staying directly opposite of each other - that shows what colors is a match and what you should go for.
Obviously, when working with a Pavotube you can't just enter the numeric value of the color, so you have to rely on your own judgement and choose the color closest to the one you desire. π€
Enough about colors..
I shot everything on the Canon R5 and only used the Canon 24-70 mm f./2.8 L USM III lens for this job - while on some of the photos (like in the shower or in the bed, made use of my GODOX V1 PRO flash). π
As always: Please feel free to ask away about whatever you want to know about this shoot! βΊοΈ Technical stuff, practical stuff, tips or tricks - or simply just let me know what you think. π₯³ππ»
