This shot with Wiana was initially meant to be a booty shoot.
However, with the strong sun behind me, it turned out more explicit and lacked aesthetic quality. So, we changed the direction and shot her from the front, facing a new challenge: Normally, I’d lean her head back for a more sensual look, but when I did that, the light came from below her jawline, illuminating her face - like kids do at Halloween with a flashlight under their chin.
Still, I was determined to make it work, so I jumped up and down and around on the rocks until I found a good vantage point and had her look down instead.
And that’s me in a nutshell:
You’ll always find me circling the model in all directions, and, if possible, from different heights, to find a better angle. Over time, I’ve learned you never really know the best angle to photograph from until you've tried them all.
