These images were produced in a very simple home environment using one main light - a soft box, shot against a white background (a living room wall!) and with my model sat comfortably crossed legged on a cushion; this is a natural position to anyone meditating. My main light was positioned at a 45 degree angle to the right (my right) of my model. My aim was to create a series of images that were soft and natural; overall conveying an essence of peace and solitude. I chose to shoot in black & white as I feel it delivers emotive qualities, creating depth and feeling. The theme that these images represent is 'Meditation' - a state of pure quiet, balance and tranquility. I was also able to capture the key lighting effect seen within 'Rembrant' lighting.
I was very happy with the final outcome of these photographs, to add to my own satisfaction I received a fair amount of positive feedback from these images and my model adored them.
