I met makeup artist Joanne a few months ago and she had a bodypainting project that she was working on that she wanted to shoot. We met a few days before the shoot and discussed some of the designs and colours that she would be using but I had no idea it was going to look so great on model Karmiel until I went to meet them after the airbrushing was all done. I had a few locations in mind for the shoot and one of them was in an alley with a large graffiti mural on it. The weather was starting to change and I could feel the rain about to start so we had to hurry. This location ended up working really well and we did attract a bit of attention from the onlookers. It was almost uncanny how well the colours that Joanne used matched the graffiti on the wall and she hadn't seen it before so it was really a complete stroke of luck. Karmiel not only endured the long make up session but when it came time for the shoot she was a total professional and threw down some awesome poses.
These last two shots were done in the studio using a ring light and two Speedlites behind Karmiel to provide a little bit of accent and separation from the background. We were really crunched for time so these studio shots were set up and done in less than half an hour.
