Re: Infra-Red and Model Portfolio shoots

[Michelle Barczykowski <barch@xxxxxxxxx>]

If you're looking for shots that really show what the model looks like I
don't suggest I R  film.  It is very beautiful but eliminates lots of
features on your face.

Perhaps you want to do some shots with regular film for the model and then
do only a couple of experimental things after that with I R.  

Because the film detects heat, I use hot lights or go outside when it's
warm.  You can also bring hot lights outside.  Heat gives the maximum
effect...it makes skin glow and have an alabaster appereance.

If yo have some fantasy scenarios in mind the film is great.  But again,
it is not the sort of film that shows exactly what a person looks like.
Remember, because you use a red filter over the lens that anything red on
your skin becomes almost non-existent.  I've tried doing lots of model
stuff with I R and if they're looking for straight-up b&w that shows off
their features they will be disappointed.  

good luck!
