At The Studio: Bike Shoot with Sarah Pandora

Recently, I had the opportunity to put together a team to shoot a concept that is quite different from my usual fare.  Armed with a borrowed Harley Davidson Sportster, local makeup artist Stephanie Costa and model Sarah Pandora, I set about to create something about as far from your typical girl-on-motorcycle shoot as possible.

Since the motorcycle, generously provided by my good friend Aaron, has a definite retro look to it, we styled the shoot around that. We shot at various spots in the parking lot of my studio, utilizing a very simple lighting setup consisting of two speedlights and two bounce umbrellas.

Also, if you’re interested in seeing how I work, be sure to check out the video Stephanie put together chronicling the shoot here:  Bike Shoot Video by Stephanie Costa
