Modeling session


This afternoon at the beach I witnessed a modeling session. The area around here with the beautiful landscape is perfect for such photographic assignments. Yet it´s hard work. The sun is burning from the sky, and it´s a different thing if you got to work in the heat or if you´re only basking. Anyway, since I´m so interested in photography I watched pretty closely how the job was being done. Nothing special, after all, just making sure that the light is right, and that you have a willing model. Changing clothes for a session for catalogue pictures is tiresome for the model, while the suncreme is melting away during the process. To make the bright afternoon light a bit smoother, a white screen was held by an assistant in front of or at the side of the model .
