Natural Blues pt. II | PREMIUM EXCLUSIVE | Jessica Sigrid

SECOND PART OF THIS NEW TWO PARTS SERIES - OUT TODAY! 🤩

The almighty Jessica Sigrid, who's no stranger to the channel. Latest, I met up with her on a hotel to do her some beautiful shots - but she has invited me by her place too or the most beautiful thing ever; told her story some years ago for the world and made me document her journey. 🥹🙏🏻

But things have changed and so has Jessica. 💪🏻🤩

She has progressed so very much, she lives at another place than back then & she loves hanging out with me, more than ever. 🥹🫶🏻
"It's a process. I feel free with you, Mikkel", as she says. "Doing extremely beautiful feminine photos, without ever either having to fear for herself, feel ashamed or just feel 1% uncomfortable while being completely nude in front of you Mikkel, is what keeps me growing everytime we're together. 🫶🏻"

Wuaw.. Simply just wuaw. 🙏🏻🥹

The setting was a bit different this time around, since she had a clear vision of a location she wanted to use. At her new home there's a bathtub, a balcony and some great windows which she wanted to incorporate on the photos - and luckily for us, the weather was superb the day we arranged to meet. ☺️☀️👌🏻

If you want to enjoy the 'Behind The Scenes' video from this particular shoot, you can click here and check it out. ☺️ Below I'll just run through a couple of quick notes with the light setup (which mainly consisted of natural sunlight from the huge windows tho!);

(Above; A still from the 'Behind The Scenes' video showing how I placed the Pavotubes to brighten up the room behind Jessica (who at this point is sitting on the edge of the bathtub).)

The main purpose of using a Pavotube for most of the bathtub photos, was to brighten up and create an overall lighter ambient atmosphere. We had as much light coming in through the window as we could wish for, but somehow the marble tiles didn't reflect as much as I actually thought they would, so I cheated and placed a tube on the floor facing down and just lighting stuff up on full force. 😅👍🏻

After we did all the bathtub AND balcony stuff, we headed inside again to use the shower. Here, I wanted to create a little more sexy/mysterious atmosphere than just the normal light coming in. Mainly because the light was just "straight on her and nothing special" (beautiful indeed tho!) but since we also used a shower on our last shoot, and it had a very destinctive look - I wanted to go in another direction. 😁

Therefore we did made use of the Pavotubes once again, but this time I changed the setting to "Hue" and went for a red glow, because...well...red is just sexy, right? 😂😏🤷🏻‍♂️

(A Pavotube casually standing on the counter facing 90 degrees away from Jessica and mainly use the marble tiles as a reflector to smoothen out the light. This wouldn't have worked if I twisted it so it hit her directly.)

That's more or less what I have to say about this shoot. 😁

The second part will release later in December, so stay tuned.. 😏👌🏻

As always: Please feel free to ask away about whatever you want to know about this shoot! ☺️ Technical stuff, practical stuff, tips or tricks - or simply just let me know what you think. 🥳🙏🏻
