Jordan Bunniie, Brooke Eva, and Mika Lovely for Temperance
🕑 Added 2015-07-17 22:20:48 +0000 UTCSometimes everything works out even better than you could have imagined. I have been trying to work with Jordan and Brooke for I think three years now, but we've never managed to be in the same place at the same time for long enough to make it happen. I was hoping that we would manage to catch each other while we were both passing through the South West on our respective trips, but they took a northern route through Arizona, and I road along the Mexican boarder after leaving White Sands. Then I saw their Philly dates, and it just so happened we were both getting into town the same day, and I knew it was finally going to happen.
We spent the fourth of July shooting all day. First I shot the three of them together, something I had never done for Temperance. Every model you add to a shoot adds another layer of difficulty, so it is a real testament to the three of them that we managed to make so many great photos. Shooting for Temperance can be hard with just one model. I'm shooting through at least one sometimes two or three mirrors, which can get pretty confusing, but we really made this work. My strategy for shooting multiple people is to sort of put a pin in one person when they hit a pose that I love, and have them hold it. Once I have a single person set I have the other two pose around her until we get a really great shot. Having three people just posing is leaving a lot to chance, and leading the shoot this way made for a lot of photos that I really love. It also cuts out a lot of the awkward eye contact and giggles that can make shooting multiple people hard.
After we had shot all three of them together for a while I did a bunch of singles as photos as well. It was a long day, so I don't remember exactly what lens I used for which shots, but I used my 70-200mm F2.8L, my 24-70mm F2.8L, and my 85mm F1.4 on this shoot. Its definitely important to not be afraid to pause the shoot and switch lenses to get the photos that you want! Sometimes if I am struggling I will just switch lenses to get a different perspective and take a moment to let the anxiety of not getting something just right go. Clear heads make for better photos.
I hope you all enjoy this series as much as we did creating it.

All your stuff has such a great tone to it. Kind of an old school feel to the color. Really rich but not over saturated. What method do you use for adjusting the tones in your pictures? Some landscapes even look like saturation has been pulled in some colors.

It's a tough job but somebody has to do it. Great is an understatement. These are really stunning. I see that you have one of these prints for sale. May need to get that one. Hope you get a change to work with these three women again - Together or indvidually. They are all really gorgeous

These photos are breathtaking. I have to admit that I might have found concentrating on the photography difficult with these three gorgeous models. Very excellent work. The photos are as beautiful as their subject.
