Creating and shooting in a fake shower

Moving water can allow you to create a number of moods, from artistic to very glamourous and sexy. Lighting Diagram Obviously the main concern is safety - mains-powered strobes and water do not mix.

Experimental Shoots: Graffiti Body Paint

Using the figure as a body painting canvas is great fun and can leads you into all sorts of places. This particular set featured LouLou as the model and the painting done by Sam Day.

Special Effects with Layering and Montage

The intent behind these first two images is to layer the cloth or clothes over the nude image, to give a controlled sense of translucency to the materials.
