For something different I went to a training session and took some portraits of the MCRG girls. Was great for a change – usually I’m scouting around looking for nice soft flattering light and trying to bring out the beauty and romance in my subjects. This shoot was a complete reversal – harsh and contrasty light used in portraits with attitude and personality.
I thought it’d be a lot cruisier than a wedding shoot. Alas, it was freakin’ hard work still! But very much rewarding as the girls were great to work with and I like final set of images. Thanks heaps MCRG for having me along.
Let’s hope they kick Tasmanian butt come March. Good luck, ladies!
