"Dark Pinup" lighting tutorial on set w/ Kitty, @vermillionfox and @wcpublishing!

Good evening, Steemit! I’m giving @dtube another try. I don’t think Safari plays nice with the platform so I’m going to attempt another go with Chrome.

Over the weekend, I finished three provocative shoots for the “Proclivities” chapter of the “Dark Pinup” book I’m doing with @wcpublishing. One of those shoots was with an incredible model from Madison, WI named Kitty. She was a knockout from the moment we began, but during a particularly dark portion of shoot, it occurred to me this would be a perfect opportunity to film a lighting tutorial for Steemit.

Years ago, I discovered a fascinating lighting technique, using the flashlight on an iPhone. What appears as blue light, in combination with limited warm lighting from laps or candles, creatures a beautiful greenish hue. Amplified even more when the technique is used on dark skin tones. The finished photos have made magazines and social media, but I’ve never explained how I do it.

Have a look. I’d love to hear some comments from other photographers on Steemit. Thanks for reading. I post daily. For more photography, tutorials, art and the stories behind the work, follow me here @kommienezuspadt!
