This shoot took place at a movie theater and was the first time I shot for a clothing brand; I worked directly with SOLO, the owner of the brand, and after meeting the team, we got straight to work and put together the shot. The overall aesthetic was very vibrant; especially with the setting around colorful arcade lighting and neon accents. I used an off-camera flash; a Godox V1 with a small softbox and a white diffuser; to control the light on the subjects while complementing the ambient glow. The light power fluctuated throughout the shoot; ranging from 1/128 to 1/32; since we moved between shots inside the movie theater and outside in the surrounding area.

My camera settings were 1/250 shutter speed; f/2.8 aperture; and ISO 500. This shoot pushed me to focus just as much on the ambient light coming from the environment as on the subjects themselves; a skill that really shines in the first shot of the collection; which happens to be one of my favorites.
