Another shoot with the Godox Flash system

[peter]

Hi Guys and Girls

I more often post in the b/w forum pages but thought it was time for a splash of colour. This is the ladies first time being a model and after a short while I think she took to like a duck to water. All of these were shot with the Fugi X-T2 and the Fuji 50-140mm lens all at F2.8 as I like to shoot wide open with all my lens or as much as I can which is why I do like my primes or fast glass like the 50-140mm.

I have upgraded or side ways switch from the Elinchrom flash system to the Godox flash system. The reason for this being that the Godox system up's up the world of (HSS) high speed sync and (TTL) through-the-lens metering to the Fuji system. Elinchrom are going to bring HSS and TTL to their system but not till the end of the year and even then the cost is around the same as the Godox system. Any way enough waffle here are a few photos.

Your model looked very at ease with you, Peter.

I like all three shots.
But I particularly like the way you have filled the frame with her hat, face and shoulder in the first.
I like that pose, and the light and shading.
Nice to see your work in colour, although I do like your mono work.

Thanks Garry.

Again just someone who came forward after I put a call out on Facebook. I did meet her the day before for a coffee and a chat about the shoot. I think that helped a lot as I could answer any questions she may have had well before the shoot. Also gave us a chance to talk about outfits and such like.

I am trying to do a full frame shot on each shoot as I feel its all about the person when thats all you can see. So there will be more like that to come. As always the b/w ones are on my flickr site but I just thought a splash of colour would make a nice change

Just checked your flickr.

Nice to be able to see the colour / mono comparisons.

The contrast in your mono, is spot on.

I do use some presets in lightroom but always tweek them to my liking. I also went with a different preset from the off as this was an older model and the preset I have been using of late was just to much for her even with a few tweeks I will post a few in the b/w forum soon.
