Oxford: Venus in furs*

Written by Nasir Hamid on January 23rd, 2013

We finally got some snow this winter and as luck would have it I got invited to do a fashion shoot with an amazing team in an incredible location. The stars must have aligned just right because it doesn’t get much better than that. I shot mostly on digital because of the fast next day turnaround required for the shots but I also took along a film camera with me to shoot some Polaroids which turned out to be a huge hit. I’m really looking forward to shooting some more with this creative team so stay tuned.

You can view the final photo shoot images on The Tab website here.

[Tech info:] Mamiya Universal, 100mm/f3.5 lens, loaded with Fuji FP100C (expired) instant pack film.
*Trivia fans might like to know that the title of this post comes from the code name given to Photoshop 6.0.

    My favourite of the ones in this blog post is the first. It is much better than a simple snapshot, but it has a lovely simplicity to it. Perhaps I wish it was a bit more exposed though.

    I also think the blonde model (Christy?) looks fantastic in the first shot on the Tab website. There’s something forlorn about her look…
