Shooting models in a giant water tank

in Photography Lovers2 years ago (edited)

It's been a while since I posted anything to the Hive. I literally have thousands of images and I feel like I've exhausted my stock. I've written many posts here on the Hive and it's been very rewarding in more ways than one!

So now I find myself with not much left in the tank to post to the Hive, so with that in mind I spent my Sunday shooting models in a different type of tank!

I took so so many images yesterday and it's going to take quite a while to sift through them all. So this post is the first of many from this shoot:

Reach out before you pass out!

It's great when two models who had never met each other get so creative. Without any prompting from the photographers present, the two models here worked out that they wanted a Michelangelo pose underwater.

The model at the top of frame could hold her breath significantly longer than the redhead. We had to be quick to grab the shots!

Lucille

One of the issues I have with group photoshoots is that I can never remember all the models' names! I do know that this is Lucille and she was a real pro in the water!

Kesinia

Kesinia had never done any underwater modelling before and you wouldn't know it when she jumped in and started rocking the poses!

And another one of Kesinia:

Seeing red

One of my fellow photographers, Jodie, isn't a big fan of red. So with that in mind we added some red fabric to swish around if only to wind Jodie up!

Watch this space for more posts like this. I took over 6000 images and I will probably bore everyone to death with post after post of swimming models!

About me:
I usually specialise in shooting lightpainting images but occasionally dabble in urbex and artistic model photography. I'm always on the lookout for someone to collaborate with; please don't hesitate to get in touch if you'd like to create art.

the light is a true magic!

Ooof, you don't hang about Chris, These are fab!

My images are still on the camera... might have to have a sneaky look at them this evening 😉

Thanks Dan, good to meet up again yesterday. I got about 5k images so can't afford to hang about haha

What a selection! We are sure there must be many more treasures to be found. Just These are So amazing. Thanx for sharing 🙏

Thanks @lightpainters I got a bit trigger happy yesterday with a 10fps camera and ended up with 7000 images to wade through!! I need to slow it down next time... Plenty of posts on Hive to come though! 😂

Bro! These turned out badass! I love the tank shots. That one photo where the light is hitting her red hair was incredible. She definitely did rock the poses. Great job once again.

Thanks @castleberry I'm pleased to say I have many more like these to post!

This took a lot of work, lighting, costumes and turned out great.
