Model : Jenice Marcelo

Part 2 of  Jen and this time a little  bit more daring . I'm glad Jen was up for it .  I'm also loving the grungy look on some of the photos although I still need  a lot to learn in post-processing . No BTS this time :)

Location : South Forbes Golf City

I have been planning this shoot for a long time but having problems with the lighting set up every time I make a mockup. I first saw a picture with a cat’s eye in the maiden issue of i-mag photography magazine. Mr. Ibarra Deri, my mentor, captured the image.  He utilized 2 lite panel reflectors to create a double horizontal reflection on the model’s cornea mimicking a cat’s eye. But since I don’t have lite panels, I just used 2 Styrofoam boards instead.

For the main light, I pointed a strobe on the ceiling in front of the model, creating a modified butterfly lighting. 2 strobes were positioned at the back pointed on the white wall to burn the background.  The 2 Styrofoam boards placed horizontally in front of the model act as reflectors to soften the shadows at the same time create an interesting catch light on the model’s eyes.

Model and MUA : Macy Aguilar

One of our models had measles on the day of the shoot. Luckily, Macy (our MUA) gladly stepped in. Although 'not prepared ' , she strut her wares in front of the camera skillfully.  Well, she used to be a model before becoming a make-up artist : )

Hope to see you more in front of the camera, Macy : )
