Portrait Session with Maggie
A week or so back I had an amazing portrait session with Maggie Kreitlow. She has been modeling for about 6 years and is a pretty nice lady. I was really looking forward to experimenting with some new films that I haven’t worked with to often. One being the Fuji Reala 100 which I pushed about two stops to get some added saturation and of course I shot with the beloved Fuji Pro 400h. All the black and white photos were shot on the Fuji Neopan 1600 - I love this stuff! It has a beautiful grain and amazing contrast. A lot of people just don’t realize the amount of post production put into digital photography to make the photographs look similar to this :)
I can’t say that film was 100% the reason this shoot turned out a success. A few other reasons are to thank also, perhaps the beautiful lighting, a beautiful model, and the awesome brick wall which was reflecting the morning sunlight.
Hope you like the images and if you do please feel free to post a comment below or contact me.

I must say a few things:
1. Very good contrast on each photo. The way things fade in and out from the background is really amazing.
2. The light in these photos are AMAZING. Even in the black and white photos it adds both depth and contrast to the photos. The color photos are filled with warmth. They nurture the model in a way I haven’t seen in photography before. The model has a certain aura about her and it is as though the sun and her are embracing each other in these photos. Truly beautiful.
3. The facial expressions are complimentary to the colors in each photo.
4. And the obvious last one: She is absolutely beautiful.
