[Leica] Nathan's PAD 17/5/2017: channelling Geoff

[Nathan Wajsman]

Our photo club at the office, Lightbox, has come up with a new project, called “Portrait of an Office”. Basically, we are going to make a book with portraits of our colleagues, expressing their passions and non-work personalities. The shoots are done in our studio at the office (normally used for webinars), and the choice of props, clothing etc. is entirely at the discretion of the “victim”, obviously within the practical constrains of a small studio on the 1st floor (so no live horses, for example). Yesterday we did a shoot with the first batch of volunteers, among them Caroline, a Dutch colleague who is very much into sports. Four images, in the “making of” spirit.

Caroline unpacks her props. The outfit she is wearing is used for tennis or padel:

Christophe photographs Caroline in her padel incarnation:

Caroline plays football too:

The camera is tethered to a computer so that photographer and model can review the images on the fly:

The final product will be a black & white book with one page per participant, a photo and some words written by the person about his or her passion. It will be used as a corporate gift and will be sold online (Blurb) to raise money for charity.

Cheers,
Nathan
