Gina, Vintage New

March 14th, 2008  |  Published in Featured, Photo Shoots  |  5 Comments

A few weeks ago, a co-worker of mine invited a model friend of his into the office to help us break in our new studio. Gina was a wonderful model and has a look that just makes me think of the Marilyn Monroe era and that wonderful time when glamour and beauty ruled. Gina is an aspiring model and actress…. something tells we all will be seeing a lot more of her in the years to come. The interesting thing about this image is that I made it while standing at the back of the room behind my co-worker as he photographed the model. He was shooting using the studio lights, however this image was taken with available light using a Nikon D3 at ISO 1600/F4 using only the modeling lights from the strobes.  The light sensitivity, and noise-free image processing in the D3 in my opinion, are borderline magical.

    Hi, new reader via the TWIP podcast, you were great on it! What is with the ringtone spam when I view this post in google reader? There is about 30 lines of spam links to a site from have laptop will travel dawt com…. Nothing else in any of the other last few posts, just this one. This you monetizing or someone spamming you?

    Thanks for the heads-up. Spammers are getting more clever, now they can even edit post content without consent. Great.

    Clearly it’s time for me to upgrade my Wordpress install.

    Glad to help, and glad it’s them and not you :) I’d hate to boycott your site! :)
