Photokina …. Part II

By Scott Lewis on September 20, 2014

After finally finding my way out of the labyrinth that was “made in china world” I set of to find Ben and Teymur, all I knew was that they were somewhere… And as fate would have it as I was on the going down escalator there they were passing by on the opposite escalator going up …

Having a chance to catch up with the guys was great, they were there working for Manfrotto and dragged me along with them to the RED camera stand which seem like a good idea at the time….

Ulli ….

By Scott Lewis on May 22, 2014

When Ulli and I were talking about what we were going to shoot she suggested something like “Twiggie” but with a modern twist ….

Lesley Lawson (née Hornby; born 19 September 1949), widely known by the nickname Twiggy, is an English model, actress and singer. In the mid-1960s she became a prominent British teenage model of swinging sixties London with others such as Penelope Tree.

Film Noir shoot with Thorsten ….

By Scott Lewis on May 20, 2014

A few weeks ago Thorsten suggested we do shoot in the style of a 1940’s black and white film. The term film noir, French for “black film”, first applied to Hollywood films by French critic Nino Frank in 1946, but the name took until the 1970s to catch on in the American cinema. Whether film noir qualifies as a distinct genre is a matter of ongoing debate among scholars.

DOME : Artist catalouge shoot (making of)

By Scott Lewis on May 7, 2014

Christian (aka Dome) is an artist who has a studio is next door to the lightGIANTS studio so we run into each other all the time. A few weeks back we organises to shoot a large part of his current work. As this shoot was something completely different my normal portrait shoots I thought it would be interesting to post mostly “making of” style photos so you can see the process and thought that went into the shoot. To see the finished images please visit Christian (aka Dome) website www.domeone.de or visit him on Facebook www.facebook.com/dome.streetart

Large polystyrene reflectors on the sides for soft even light reflection, was not always easy depending on the size of the canvas.
