Life Model Photography Session

 I am particularly lucky in the respect that I have a friend who is a life drawing model. This gave me the opportunity to set up a session with him and ask him to pose for me! I set up a black background and some lights in order to get the most dramatic shadows possible. I am not good at photography as such, but I knew what I wanted to get out of the photographs. I was pleasantly surprised with how well they came out!

It was great to be able to get exactly what I wanted out of his posing, as mentioned before I was beginning to hit a wall with my illustration of the 'struggle' scene as I had to reference for it.

 I really needed my model to be fighting against himself to give the illusion of a struggle.


I took these photographs to use as a reference later on, however, as I have said I am pleased with how some of them have come out! I feel they will be more then useful for my project!
