Offering a sofa, some veils and pillows and let the scene go, let it flow to what it wants to flow. Just watch and take your pictures. You can see when your subject feels comfortable with the scene. When she comes to express emotions your viewfinder will show it and you have the chance to catch this Boom Boom effect picture. Enjoy it and try it by your own. Setup is easy. A sofa, some pillows, a pink and large veil, one flash light, a camera and YOU and your ideas.

What a difference a veil makes. As said earlier, let her play with that thing and watch what she is doing. Catch the moment, thats what’s your job. Here you see her suddenly sitting like Buddah, in the Lotus way … not too bad … To match the power of this scene i decided to convert into a powerful, punchy b&w picture.

This is where the surpass started. Threw in a fabrics, a large one and she started to play with it. What a fantastic large piece of veil, smooth, cool, flexible, soft and the color is a hit. She liked it and within a second she started to wrap herself into it. What else could i do to watch the scene and did my very best to document this surprising event, with a big smile in my face…

Olympus E-M1, what else ?

Silence

Silence, that was on my mind after giving her a role and a fabrics to play with. Just standing around, the camera ready, watching was she will do and ready to snap the decisive moment. As i always say, let her believe you do nothing. That give her the feeling to be alone, do not talk with her, let her bring herself into position, just watch. And suddenly, she moved into a special way into a position you love. Do not say a word, just snap this moment with the cm and smile.

That was exactly what i did. And i did it again and again. Took a lot of wonderful pictures, SHE produced thru her elegante female moves, filling the given role. And me ? Just smiling, seeing how it works for me. So now its up to you. Do it too… First i thought its a good idea to leave something like a pillow as anchor point, but after a while i judged it a bad idea and left it out. There are enough anchor points for your eyes.
