Lesley Lawson<\/b>\u00a0(n\u00e9e\u00a0<\/span>Hornby<\/b>; born 19 September 1949), widely known by the nickname\u00a0<\/span>Twiggy<\/b>, is an English model, actress and singer. In the mid-1960s she became a prominent British teenage model of\u00a0<\/span>swinging sixties\u00a0London with others such as\u00a0<\/span>Penelope Tree.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n As it is a total contrast to the film\u00a0noir<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0shoot I had just finished I like the idea of keeping the retro theme going but in a total different style. Rather than a high contrast lighting form the sides, I used very soft light from the camera axis.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Using “Clam-shell” lighting and a white background, I metered the 2 Bowens 400ws flashes at f9.8 but shot at f8. By over exposing my images by 1\/2 of a stop I got nice bright images but didn’t blow out the highlights. The second thing i needed to watch out for was keeping separation between Ulli and the background, as she had a lot of white on in some of the photos i didn’t want her to melt into the back ground . Watching the inverse square law i kept her about 1 f\/ stop of light in-front of the background. As she is a 1\/2 stop over exposed and 1 stop in front of the background, thus the back ground was 1\/2 under exposed. This kept the whites looking white but different to each other and achieved the separation i was looking for.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Other than a few different camera angles all the photos were taken with this set up.<\/p>\n When Ulli and I were talking about what we were going to shoot she suggested something like “Twiggie” but with a modern twist ….<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a> <\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
