Autumn Lifestyle Shoot
Life’s been so crazy lately, but finally I found time to work with one of my models again. I’d been dying to take advantage of the superb autumn colours, and two weeks ago my lovely Russian friend, Ulya joined me at Wollaton Park to shoot amongst the trees and the bracken. All the shots were taken within just a 25 metre radius which goes to show the scope your surroundings can provide just by walking a few paces in any given direction. I wanted to take the opportunity to work simply with just available light using my Nikon D700 and just a 50mm 1.8 lens, and a reflector. Clothes: model’s own. Pink scarf and fur hat provided by the photographer.

Love the depth of field used here. Great use of the ambient light and reflector which gives lovely catch lights in the Ulya’s eyes. In particular like the head shot in the bracken and the shot with Ulya leaning against the tree.

Lovely photos, Maria. And you have made good use of the 50mm lens in this lovely autumn setting. I think there is a special serene quality to the image where Ulya is looking down.
