Lila dropped by the studio in early January, and we had a blast:

She is a powerlifter, wrestler, and pro-domme. And she loves what she does.

She has a super powerful body, somewhat different from most regular models, but I find that exciting as you can do other things with it.

Lila is also a very erotic being and loves to shoot erotic images.

I didn’t feel the weather was right, and it was close to getting dark, but when I told her about the derelict control tower, she said, " Yeah, let’s go.

So we did.

I set the ISO to 800, the lowest shutter speed I dared use, and mainly shot at full aperture, so 2.8-3.5. It was that or nothing.

It’s all-natural light, and frankly, I love the ambiance.

Amazing results, especially under the circumstance you were shooting in!

Thomas, as always great shots, but now that you mention ISO, how to choose? I thought anything beyond 200 is too grainy, or it it always on function of the maximum exposure "500 rule".

The rule is lower is better, so go as Lowe as you can. But if rhe only way of getting the pictures is going higher it becomes a question of pictures or no pictures. There is no hard rule (that I know of) for iso. A lot depends on your chip, processor, how many Megapixel (my camera is 62) and how big the images will be. My personal limit with my camera is around 1600 iso. Beyond that it become too ugly. But I would rather have a good grainy photo - than No photo. Next time you shoot test it out: shoot a model in natural light and make a progression with higher and higher iso. Then resize all the files to, say, a4 or a3 size and compare them all. You could even print them if you want. And then decide on your own personal limit.

Love Lila’s physique and her confidence, makes the shoot fun for everyone involved! I feel if it’s a black & white image then a little grain from high iso can be acceptable!

Thomas, regarding low light, why not use a prime lens? F1.8 would save a stop or more. In a space like this zooming with your feet can be done easily, I'd think. Cheers, Rob

You are right but in this case it’s about versatility. Having to pack the bag with all I need would probably have delayed us 15 min and in this case time is of the essence. I have a 35 f.1.2 and a 50 f.0.95. The downside to wide open apertures is you also have a very limited depth of field. That means less of the model in focus. Shooting up against something this is not an advantage, had I had some distance to the background I could have used it to create further separation between model and background. In this case it was mainly a question of getting out the door asap.
