The Normal Lens

Wed, 28 Dec 2005 08:19:37 -0500

by: jameslohrey

Description}: I find that the normal lens on a 35-mm camera to be the most valuable lens for my style of photography. The beauty of a normal lens is that it gives me an image similar to human vision. Short lenses exaggerate the perspective and can distort the model’s features creating a "special effect", on the other hand, the telephoto lenses flattens the perspective and there is a loss of depth in a frame. Although the telephoto lens is good choice for close-ups and reducing background information when needed. I personally don’t use a zoom lens, but this is a tool if you are restricted in movement and there is a need to quickly take a picture. When I am working with a model, I am not restrict in being in one area, so I can physically moving around the model and moving back and forth. As a matter of fact, this is another beauty of the lens is I have to visually work harder before I take the image.

The Rules of Lighting

Description}: The rules of lighting are that there are no rules. The only consideration is, does the image look good. I trust my eyes rather than trusting formulas. James Lohrey

Start with the Make-Up

Tue, 27 Dec 2005 14:21:55 -0500

by: jameslohrey

Description}: I start off with make-up, hair, accessories and clothes. This is more critical in black and white photography because people will see the design and that bright pink lipstick that looks so great in color will turn into muddy gray. I have also learned to use the camera’s viewfinder to look at the model so I can see what the camera sees. Also while going through this process, the model starts getting comfortable with me, and this is very important. I can’t emphasize enough how important each step is, and If one step is missing, the photo shoot is a waste of time for everybody.

The Secret

Tue, 27 Dec 2005 14:08:35 -0500

by: jameslohrey

Description}: All the models are beautiful girls; look at Robyn Lynn, here: she really is a wonderful lady, one of the most beautiful girls I've ever seen. But, when the models are looked from Lohrey's objective, they become more beautiful, much more beautiful and charming. I know: the scene is well studied, as well as the light, the make up, etc. Surely Lohrey wants to photograph not only a woman, but also a special atmosphere; and many details, together, may help to create that atmosphere. But I'm not sure that these "details" can explain how this photographer may succeed in making women so beautiful and sensual. It seems that he does not only portrait faces and bodies, but also souls.

Black & White Images Are More Emotional

Description}: I use black and white film because it records a very wide range of tonal values and its beautiful grain addes texture and softens to the image. Black and white images do not over power so the viewer can feel the emotional element. James Lohrey
