Tattoo’s in the garage

March 22nd, 2012

Last tuesday i shot another portrait for LAJV Magazine. This time it was the airbrush artist Linda “Flickan” Tolind. And as i knew that she had begun doing some tattoo’s as well my idea was to shoot her doing a nice tramp stamp on a guy in a suit in some kind of garage, why? I don’t know, it just felt cool some how 🙂

I called up a garage in town and asked if it was ok to shoot there. They were thrilled and we where welcome to use it!

Since my model who was to wear the suit didn’t have a tatto and didn’t want one either, especially not a tramp stamp, i had to draw one in Photoshop. Since i was doing it in PS i put in the text Bad Ass as well 😀

The lighting was set up as follows. Two Profoto Magnum reflectors with grids and a soft light reflector from the sides and the back as rimlight. A 3×4 softbox from my left and the Profoto ringflash with the white softlight reflector.
