While searching around for blogs and information sources for my links page I came across this. It’s by far one of the best explanations of “perfect white” that I’ve come across. Check it out.
Zack Arias – White Seamless Tutorial
It’s pretty much how I was able to achieve shots like this.

I have blogged before. I’ll blog again. This time about my own work. I’ll try to keep updates going about what I’m working on in photography and show you some amazing photos.
To start it off I’ll post an image from a recent model shoot. AJ came to me with another model named Odessa. Several lighting setups and outfits later this image was created. It’s the second to last image taken on the day about 5 mins before they left. Goes to show you that you should keep shooting as you never know what you’re going to get.
Lighting wise. There’s a background light with a blue gel grid on the gray background on a floor stand set to full power. There’s a high silver lined beauty dish on the left of the shot and a giant white foam core v-flat on the right filling the shadow. To add a little punch a small softbox was aimed at the floor to give a little kick of light from the floor. Shot at F/5.6 + 1/3 on Flash WB at ISO 100 and 1/125th of a second shutter. In post the blue was brought up and color temperature was adjusted to 5100 and tint to -7. Clarity was brought up and a little contrast was added in addition to 1 point of black. A crop was applied and voila.
Enjoy.
