Stephen Eastwood

Stephen Eastwood uses long lenses while working as he said he feels more comfortable using this working distance. He is a fashion and beauty photographer and digital retoucher.
He uses a lot of colour which is why i chose to research him and hopefully pinch some of his ideas.


This is a beautiful image, he has used a good range of texture, form and obviously a lot of colour. The little blurred lights in the background makes the models perfect skin stand out more.
The link below shows you how the shoot was done and what materials and equipment was used.

Camera Name: EOS 5D Mark ii
Lens: EF 35-350mm f/3.5-5.6L USM
ISO: 100
Exposure: 1/160th sec @ f/8
FocalLength: 140mm








This is another image used with the same background, which is just a large piece of sparkly material. Stephen uses a range of different backgrounds which is what I am going to do for my project. Im going to bring in at least 10 different materials and 'match' my model to it.

    Hi
    The background research that you are doing is fine, but can you include some more photographers from fashion or portrait photography.
    You also need to photograph your setup in the studio and write about the type of lights, etc that are used. This will develop an understanding of the kit and camera information used which you can write in your blog.
    I will help you with all this.

    Steve
