This has been our 3rd year we have photograph the range of Bridal wear for Melbourne based wedding gown specialist Belle Et Blanc. Our previous photo shoot was on location at Albert Park but this time we decided on a simpler studio shoot.
Talent/Model: PaigeR @LondonMGT
Hair & Make-up Stylist: Missaimmey
Studio: Glow Studios G79 @West Melbourne
We created a series of images for CouchBuddy.com.au to promote their range of couch covers aimed a pet owners. The client wanted the product insitu and creating a room set in the studio was easier than finding the right house. We wanted a large light source to mimic daylight our artificial light source was 2x profoto strobes into a Westcott 7 foot parabolic umbrella and 150cm Creative light soft box.

Wine Bottle Photography in our West Melbourne Studio
Yarra Valley Wine Maker Al Francaros contacted Ivan Lee to photograph Allinda Winery’s redesigned wine bottles.
There were a few challenges to photographing their latest label design because of the gold foil and embossing. We had to mix hard lights for the embossing and soft gradient lights for the gold foil. The series of images are to be used on their latest website and for other advertising and promotional purposes.

The crew flew up to the Sunshine Coast from Melbourne. We all stayed at Magic Malindi and spent a day photographing around the property and in the house. The next day before heading to the airport we stopped by a beach near Sunshine Coast Airport.
It’s the first time we have photographed a collection for Vigorella out of Victoria, it had to be done because with fashion we always photograph 1 season ahead (in winter we photograph the summer range and in summer we photograph the winter range).
The size of these heads is just a bit larger than the Profoto B1, The battery life also lasted just as long as the Profoto unit. The issues I had with the Priolite was the radio trigger not hyper syncing on the Canon 5D MKII- sync speed maxed out at 1/200th sec. I also used the same trigger on the Hasselblad via a sync lead connected to the radio trigger, it didn’t work so well because the trigger doesn’t sit into the H4D hotshot and kept falling off; a simple radio trigger would have sorted out that problem but it wasn’t supplied this time.
As mainly a Profoto and Elinchrom user, I didn’t have many Bowens mount modifiers but I did have a Bowens to Elinchrom adapter which didn’t work so well because it made the flash tube sit further back and it was black. It felt like I lost at least a 1 stop of power when using the 60×90 soft box compared to using the same soft box with the Elinchrom BXRI500.
Overall I thought the Priolite battery powered location lighting kit was very capable worth considering for photographers who use the Bowens mount system (Bowens, Chinese made lights, Hensel).
Special thanks to Kudos Cameras for lending us a set of Priolite MB500 battery powered flashes
