Nicky Phillips puts on a full fetish fashion spread for us - ringlight, steel bondage and all!
I've been playing with a couple of continuous-light ring-lights recently. Neither has super colour rendition: it was a fight to get the colours under control for this set, the fluorescent tube has too much green and not enough in the far reds. But I really like the current vogue for big donut-shaped ring catchlights in the eyes, and this was the most cost effective way of achieving that. Ideally I'd like something even larger- to get the "pure" version of the look with the ring catchlight circling the iris, you need to be really close to the model- a physically larger light would make that easier. I'll probably try to rig up something so I can use a longer lens and have the ring-light attached to the camera on the end of a pole or something, to avoid having to use a 28mm lens to get close enough.
Overall though I think these are absolutely wicked, and Nicky did a super job and vamping it up for the camera in bondage! It's so worth working with professional models- there's just no way I could direct to get all these great poses, so I hire someone really good at it and then concentrate on clicking away to capture the awesome stuff she is doing :-)
