Rotolight - Smoke Ninja with Riannah | Cardiff Portrait Photography

4 Dec

Rotolight Smoke Ninja Portrait photography shot in Cardiff, United Kingdom

I was lucky enough to be sent a Rotolight Smoke Ninja to test and play with and so I ventured out into Cardiff city centre with my right hand man Stewart (on video) for Camera Centre UK. We shot some low light portraits with Emkai Models very own Riannah and the results were just awesome!

Being able to use the AEOS 2 Pro for lighting save an amazing rembrant style of atmosphere alongside some really cool smoke effects! THIS IS WHY I LOVE PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHY SO MUCH!!!! It was a really simple set up, using the Aeos 2 as a main light and working with the smoke machine in the best way we could whilst battling with the wind and getting the direction of the smoke to sit where we wanted.

Shooting on a roof terrace first and then moving on to shot some more dynamic full length shots in an underpass during the dark! This time, putting the light behind the model to create more of a car headlight effect. We truly improvised this shoot and worked freely to create some spontaneous photographs in our home town!
