The Old Town of Edinburgh at night is a great location for photoshoots. I wanted to explore this a bit more. So I asked Stefi<\/a>, with whom I had worked before, if she\u2019d be interested.<\/p>\n

Luckily for me, she said yes. First, we went back to the location I used with Anna<\/a>. It was cold then and we didn\u2019t have the time to \u201cwork the subject\u201d as much as I would have liked to. The lighting setup is the same. One speedlight behind camera right and one speedlight camera left to light \u00a0the dancer.<\/p>\n

Tried a slightly different composition.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Changed the position of the light and the composition.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Finally, we looked for another location. I had always been interested in Victoria Terrace but never got an opportunity to shoot there. This was the perfect time to have a try. The photo below was the only pose Stefi liked. I definitely will give this location another try.<\/p>\n

Would love to try this location during the blue hour., when the sky isn’t completely black.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
