This week’s podcast is my former muse Scarlett St Vitus, so I thought I’d make it a all Scarlett week on the blog. Some of these may be repeats, and all are from the archives, but you really can’t get enough.
As she says in the interview, she has a very interesting wardrobe. This qualifies.
The background is actually white with a green gel and a little increase in saturation in post.

I’m sure you are getting bored with Brit….OK, you better not be getting board with her. How can you even think such a thing.
Here’s three images of her in the little brown dress from last week, including another headshot.
I’ve kind of started thinking of this dress as the podcast dress because it is what Ellen is wearing in the podcast image. Surprisingly it looks fine on Britt, even though she is considerably shorter.

Brit is a very fit looking, very thin model. I learned a couple of things about shooting thin models during this shoot.
1). They look better in tight fitting clothing. I shot some images of her in a short flowy dress and she said something about her looking like she had chicken legs. I told her her legs were fine, but realized with the top of her body looking bigger than her legs, it did emphasize the thinness of her legs. When she was in something tight like the pink dress, or this outfit, her legs look like they should.
2). They don’t need to wear black. She almost looked too thin in this outfit.
Here I changed the background light to red because the outfit was black with red writing on it.

Here is another image of Model Britt in the studio’s pink dress. One thing to always remember as a photographer, when you pick one color in an image, you have to think about the other colors in the image. For instance once she was in the pink, any gelling of the background had to be in a complementary color. So I picked blue.

In the very sexy pink dress we have at the studio. I told her to mess with her hair and captured this.

Here Shawna is in a casual outfit on long boardwalk that led from the condo’s pool to the beach. We never actually got to the beach.

I mentioned Shawna was a Flamenco dance instructor. This dress is made for that.
We had a tough time with this image because the wind was whipping in off the water. And the light and dark was a problem, which is why the ocean is blown out.
