I really love how this job keeps differing from project to project. This time I was asked to photograph an amazing drag queen, Lola, who needed portrait and dancing poses for a project she will be involved in next year. See how the shoot went and what I used to capture the shots…<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

I was approached by Lola, a.k.a. Jack for some urgent portrait shots he needed for an exciting and important event in her life. The photos needed were mostly action shots and some drag poses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We had the location all to ourselves and I used my 85mm 1.4 so I was always at least 5 metres away from Lola.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I had two different setups. The on-stage shots were 5 lights, some gelled. The off-stage shots were mostly just a Speedlight as the main light and another Speedlight gelled to add a little extra dimension to the shots…<\/p>\n\n\n
