Well I have shot with Madame Bink three times now, so in good old-fashioned reverse order here are some images from our latest shoot last weekend – I have such a backlog of shoots to process now that if I started at the beginning and worked through them then Bink would have retired by the time these saw the light of day :)
And first apologies to Bink for messing around with the images of her, but I am now going through a phase or trying different treatments, some (maybe most!!!) of which don’t necessarily work that well.
First we have Bink in a hole in the wall – you’ll have to book her if you want to find out where the hole is – and as Bink has a perfect figure, much like statues did in Greek and Roman times, so a ‘statue type’ pose and an aged treatment seemed most appropriate.
Later is was on to a lake, and some lovely decking presumably used by anglers. There were people camped at the next spot around 20 yards further down, but as we had the unrobing, shoot and robing again down to a fine art it was relatively easy to get a series of good images. Also to get the best angle I used my shoot from above technique. Here is one which I have tried to give the feeling of memories of a relaxing lazy summer day, hence the sepia and desaturating treatments.
Finally a field we found where Bink just slowly walked away from me while I shot. I had a feeling in my mind when I shot it, and I’m trying to recreate that feeling in the this image. I’ve tried three different versions, and I can’t quite make up my mind which I prefer.
Well I now have to work on the other shoots of her. Bink actually embarrassed me into doing this blog entry as she has just put one up on my visit to Scotland on her blog, for which I have not yet given her any finished images :-X (that’s the emoticon for embarrassed apparently!).
So thank you very much Madame Bink, until the next time.

Hey Tim, I really like that first statue photo, that’s really interesting.
Out of those 3 walking shots, I really like the first one, it has a warmth to it that makes me feel more when looking at that photo compared to the other two :)
