Some of my most favorite images came on this shoot. We used natural light only, had a couple quick outfit changes and were dodging tons of people as we were on The Highline.
New York, the Concrete Jungle, The Big Apple has some of the coolest vibes and feels. This was a early summer day in 2018, I believe.
One thing that will make your life a lot better is the talent. Jekka Kuhlmann is an amazing fitness professional and model in NYC with tons of experience.

My number one concern when out on a shoot is safety. So finding a place to avoid too much attention can be tough. China Beach is great because it is pretty isolated and is never too busy.
I have a couple of observations and learnings from this one.
First, I was planning on using a two flash set-up, however having my equipment spread out while with the talent is asking to be robbed. So I aborted the flashes and went 100 percent natural light.
Second, the sun was still pretty high in the sky so I had to be careful with the shadows.
And lastly, sometimes when moving from one side of the model to the other the white balance would change a little more than slightly. I shoot raw, so making changes in post can be done, however it’s always best to capture the image exactly how you’d like the image to look.
