I really think that I am obsessed with this photographer. I just really like their work and I think that’s these are great. They show the use of fill flash in a stunning manner. 

The model must have her back to the sun as there is a beautiful glow coming/hitting the back of her head that gives it almost an angelic feel to the picture. This partnered with the flash from the front really highlights and makes the model pop off the background. The models pale skin really captures the light and bounces it back and also so does the choice of clothing, these both really brighten up the image. The mid depth of field is a great platform for the model as all the background is really blurred and out of focus so it becomes like a green backdrop for her. There is nothing going on in it to distract your focus it simply enhances the main subject in the foreground.

Again in this image the mid depth of field used creates a beautiful blurred backdrop for the model to be placed on, making her really pop out of the image and creating a strong foreground. I like how the background compliments the colour of her dress and also her hair, it doesn’t clash it all works really nicely together. The use of fill flash is subtle and softly highlighted the face and also what the model is holding. I like that this is a slightly longer shot and because of the framing we get to see more of the model. I think this is the framing I like most. Again she looks so angelic and soft, creating this peaceful feeling is really enhanced by flash. 

I have put this image right at the bottom as it is my favorite, but I was a bit unsure if fill flash had been used in this image. What makes me think it has is the even lighting on the models face and also the small catch light in her eye. This is stunning and if flash has been used (like I believe it has) I think that this is a style that I am really going to have to work on and use in my digital photography work as this is truly beautiful. This image is changing my perception on fill flash and is now becoming something I really like and think would be something I use more often. I love every thing about the image its simple and elegant and also this is all enhanced by the mid depth of field used by the photographer.
