Beach Shoot – Ursula

Late Sunday afternoon, a small group of photographers, models, a make-up artist and I gathered on the beach in Okinawa for an almost impromptu shoot.

Urusla, the wife of photographer Eboh, is simply stunning. She’s a fantastic model who knows how to produce great dynamic shots. I first went wide with the 645D 55mm lens to emphasize her stature.

I switched lenses to try out the 67 105mm on the 645D body, while Ursula put on a shawl.

I had been wondering if the 67 lenses would be a good match for the 645D body. I was pleased with the results of the test shoot with Bear, but a quick focus check on Ursula’s eye really blew me away.

That’s not just a self-portrait of the photographer, but a mini landscape!

A big thanks to Ursula for modeling and Kim Clay for make-up.

More images from the shoot in future posts…

    I like the landscape in the eye. I withdraw my comment that it is “bad” to have all these in the model eyes. quite good.
