Wonderful.
I love the post-processing. How did you do it?!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hmm. I didn't apply too much post-processing on this. Got down with the saturation and added some contrast increasing curves. That's basically it. For a very intense effect i add a channelmixer layer in monochrome mode aon a low fill level.
This effect here is created by a professional flash i used.
Thank you!

ja wirklich gutes licht bei der ganzen serie. gefällt mir super!
einzig die haut würde ich vielleicht noch etwas glätten.

Hmm, ja und Nein. Bin egtl nicht so Fan von soner Bügelhaut. Und hier ist wirklich NICHTS retouchiert an der Haut. Insofern PLUS für Natürlichkeit, wenn sie schonmal so vorliegt.

ich sprech nicht von bügelhaut, ich bin ja auch gegen weichzeichner und co. und wäre sehr froh wenn ich persönlich so eine haut hätte
es sprang mir einfach bei allen bilder ziemlich ins auge^^ ich hätte wahrscheinlich einfach versucht die Schatten etwas aufzuhellen, damit es nicht mehr so nach poren aussieht.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Aber ohne Schatten = ohne Wirkung.. Dann ist man beim gleichen einheitlichen weichbrei. Haut ist nunmal keine Folie und grade bei so stark schräg einfallendem Licht kann man davon was sehen.

I think this is the most beautiful of the series!!
Wonderful shots!

Sehr wunderschön licht und ich liebe die viele Armbänder. Es gibt das bild etwas mehr. Tolles Foto.

Finde ich insgesamt gelungen, doch die Komposition könnte besser sein - die Pflanze eher unten rechts, sowie die Pose etwas verändert... aber die Tonwerte, Farben und das Licht (!!!) sind klasse!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hmm, steht ne Pflanze rechts nicht "im Blick". So find ichs nen Tuck eingängiger?
Pose inwiefern verändert?
Joar, Licht war anfangs ne Einstellungssache, dann liefs.. Mit dem Sonnenlicht und nem Reflektor liefs schon nett.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
...hab ich grad auch spontan keine idee, aber mein auge wird sich nicht "eins" damit...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Insofern haste recht als dass die Pose ne Art inneres Drängen hat. Das Tuch etwas scheu über die Schulter geworfen und Schulter eingedreht. Auf der anderen Seite die "schönchen" geste mit durch die Haare gehn. War von der Kleidung her ja auch in die RIchtung gehend, nur vom kleid sieht man hier etwas wenig^^

My favorite from the shots so far I think, great framing, and lighting.

Thank you very much! There will come a lot more i think...

The lighting is really soft and natural. It might have been though to do, but it was worth it.
Also she's very pretty and the make-up is great too.

Thank you very much!!
And hell yes, the person who did the Makeup was a real discover - will do the next shootings with her.

i really like your lighting. i have a question - i was about to buy some flashes, the big ones, like bowens, profoto etc. but then i came up with the idea of buying something like sb800, 900, 600 etc (i have a nikon) which are more portable and they run on AA batteries. so what would you suggest me, am I missing something here, or are these flashguns just as good and powerful (for photographing people)
thanks

And it really was a tough job to do.. 
I own to Elinchrom D-Lite 2. 200Ws. And an Innovatronix accu for the outdoor work. For doing professional work you will need something like this. no systemflashes will bring the power. and first of all- you can't form the light with em..

well yeah im really kinda confused since I see many photos like this [link] and this [link] which really gets me wondering. as i said i would use it for people, nothing bigger, but i really don't know now how much power do i need. judging from the above photos, speedlights are enough?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well. It's a matter of how many you need. If you want to do a long shooting with hoghpowered flashs in direct sunlight in summer and don't wnat to change batteries every 50 shots and waiting 20 second to recover you need professional equipment. But if you only do it from time to time to try speedlights with added softbox etc. should be ok.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well yeah that's what I've been thinking. obivously if you're a pro, you need to get some proper equipment and powepacks, but then again if I were I'd be making loads of money, so that really wouldn't be an issue
BTW what do you use to power your dlites?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I use an innovatronix powerpack. Really heavy (about 10kg) but with two standard sockets (220V e.g.) it delivers enough power to get up to 2000 flashes with a 800WS flash at full power. Well. i use the 200WS.. so really enough power..
But thats for outdoors. For indoors just plug it into the power socket.

The key-question is: how much power do you need?
Are you often shooting in direct sunlight, or do you even need to overpower it?
Are you working with setups that would make a "line of sight" between camera and flash impossible?
How much portability do you need?
How much money do you want to spend?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
i don't know how much power, that's the question
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well... the problem is that batteries for the big flashes (if you like buying good brands etc) start at 1.5k - that's some hefty amount of money!
If you already have a Nikon flash (SB 800, 900, 600) then buy a radio trigger and see how far you get with this combination - if you need more lights buy a second one (SB 600). This isn't too much money and will give you at least a 2 lights setup and you can, if you decide to buy a big set, still use the SB 600 as a backup flash - Check out my flash pics - they are all lit using 1 SB 800 and 2 SB 600 - triggered with infrared.

ditto. So I'm totally going now for some small flashes and as you've said, they can still be used later if I buy big lights. thanks!
