Futuristic

Futuristic
Fashion shoot at awesome plastic house Futuro at WeeGee Näyttelykeskus. Exhibition is still running some weeks so if you happen to be around Espoo it is worth checking the yellow Futuro house designed by architect Matti Suuronen in 1960s.

studio day

Untitled
Original plan was to shoot outside but rainy weather once again changed plans. Long but good day at studio with three totally different styles, including the one with white furry hat. Photos & video can be found here.

Mini tripod

Mini Tripod
Mini tripod, helps when placing small flash to uneven surface. Borrowed and tested one from MarkoO during summer and had to buy one for my camera bag. Costs & weights nothing, but can be really helpful.

I have been using dSRL Gorillapod for same purposes but where Gorillapod is more sturdy and versatile, it also weights a lot more and can't be carried on your back pocket.

Bad color day

Color layers
Sometimes it feels like the whole color spectrum is against you. Two hours and about twenty layers later I decided that this particular photo works best as black & white.

Apparently it was right decision as the final photo was one of the model's & make-up artist's favorites from that shoot.
