Can't say enough good things about this picture. There's great contrast between the soft warm body and the cold steel of the room.

Location
The picture is taken at the parkstudio in Winterthur, Switzerland. I'm working there as independent freelance photographer. Excuse my pore english ;-)Time
After 2 weeks, try to convince my lovely girlfriend, to make her very first shooting in the parkstudio, she told me late night "let's do it. Now." It was about 2am. Well the result was worth a spontaneous shot.Lighting
A good photographer told me once, less is more. We was talking about studio lights. In this set there is only one head with a striplight from above.Equipment
I tok this picture with the Canon EOS 1D-X and the wonderful 70-200/2.8 lens. In December 14 I sold all my canon cams and lenses and got the Olympus E-M1 with all the nice lenses like the 75/1.8, 12-40/2.8, 40-150/2.8 plus some others.Inspiration
Because it was not planed and late night plus my girlfriend in a good mood I chose this classic setup.Editing
The picture was taken in middle of the Studio. I wanted the white wall in the back dark grey. So I just tok more distance not to get light to there. I doing a lot of my picture in a grey corner. I love to work them later out with photoshop using a simple technic with overlays. Here I was using four more pictures for. The white poles. The brick wall between. The red wall with the Chinese signs. And the gravel floor. I tok me about 15 minute to post-process this picture to this look. For the skin retouching I always using the software Portraiture from Imagenomic. With Lightroom from Adobe I always make the last few steps about coloring, brightness and shadows.In my camera bag
Privat trips. Olympus OM-D E-M1 and the Zuiko 12-40/2.8. For wedding reportages: Two E-M1, 12-40/2.8, 40-150/2.8 (plus adapter) and the 75/1.8. Always there is also a Flash in the bag. I can't remember when I was using that thing the last time :-) Nearly forgot... the cleaning tools for cam and lens.Feedback
The art is simple like I mentioned before. Take your time with the model to bring her in a natural pose.
