Case Study
Pictures as if painted
Soft light falls into my Herrenberg studio at lunchtime while Louisa prepares for the photo shoot. Her gentle demeanor goes wonderfully with the lighting mood. Louisa models as a hobby, which helps to get very natural and authentic pictures here.
My contribution
If I have soft sunlight available, I prefer this to studio light. You can't control the sunlight, but it looks much more natural in pictures. And for this photoshoot, I also used the available ambient light to compose the picture.
The clothing we chose provided sufficient contrast to the backgrounds. I often simply use the white walls of my studio or a black backdrop as a background. I left the make-up to Louisa herself. I wanted the pictures to look as natural as possible. That's why the make-up was also very minimal.
I worked out the soft look a little more in the subsequent image processing. I made a slight beauty retouch in Adobe Photoshop for the skin.
What I appreciate most about Louisa are the quiet and calm moments. There is nothing that upsets her. Sympathetic and emotional pictures are guaranteed with her. Thank you very much.
