ALTE KÜNSTLER, NEUE KLEIDER

The Student of fashion design Kira Schmidt (Trier, Germany) approached me to shoot a series of photographs from her project called “Alte Künstler, Neue Kleider”. A more detailed description along with further materials was featured on the Modedesign Trier Blog

After a 90 minute session of fine make-up artistry by the stylist herself, we engaged in a 2 hour long photo shoot in the Kliewer Photography Studio. To achieve a dramatic & focused look while at the same time emphasizing the structure of the fabric we decided to not over-do with the lighting but to stick with the simple: a 120cm octabox serving as main light and occasionally a 40cm beautydish coming from the side.
