ABX beauty photoshoot

Last weekend was spent shooting Hazel and Gracie from Colours Modelling Agency Glasgow, the shoot was split into 2 days. The client was ABX Beauty Ltd who are based in Perth. The reason for the lengthy shoot was that Burfly was shooting the whole process from start to finish for individual eyelash extensions for 2 girls, what an incredibly involved and time consuming process but well worth it in the end, they looked amazing. Our home studio proved just big enough for all the equipment too.

A huge thanks goes to Kirsty Miller at signature makeup who must be getting fed up of the sight of us by now and also of course to Angie at ABX.

Full sets can be found over on our photo diary as usual and head over to Signature Makeups blog for more info about the shoot and the lashes

Maisie Donaldson Studio

Long awaited shoot with Maisie Donaldson from Falkirk, all very last minute middle of the week evening stuff but came together very nicely in the end. Using the monster 5 foot octabox and beauty dish. Not much room left in the studio what with the octabox and heavily pregnant wife helping out. :) Couldn’t do it without you though Gilly!

Maisie is a great model to work with, any scottish photographers out there should get booking her, so effortless.

Enjoying going back to basics and using only the white seamless paper backdrop at the moment, i love that through properly lighting the subject I can change the shades from white all the way through to dark grey without having to go buy more overly priced paper.

Would love to her what you think.
