Stefania Cima - RETRO 80’s Vibes + Lighting Setup
Check it out! An awesome new photo set I did with Stefania Cima. We had a blast, and the pictures turned out amazing. Stefania is not only a super hot Italian babe but also an amazing hip-hop artist. Definitely check out her socials. In this set, we went for a cool 80's vibe with a shiny pink bikini, funky lighting, and a creative photographer. I wanted to go for that 80’s Miami vibe. The photos have this retro feel with lots of colors and a bit of that old-school film gain. I'm really happy with how they turned out. Totally happy with how the shots came out. I'm loving it. The colors, the feel, the mood, the vibe it's great. For the best viewing experience play a little 80'S retro music in the background and BAM! You'll get it. Scroll down if you want to see the lighting setup for this shoot.
Enjoy the shots.

Lighting Setup
Here is a photo of me showing Seph how to pose. hahaha but more importantly photos from this set without the coloring. I used NIK Collection Color EFex Pro 4 for the edits. I’m a huge fan of Color EFex Pro 4. Think of it like customizable Instagram filters but on a completely insane level. The lighting for this set was pretty simple. It was just two light. One large umbrella behind me positioned high enough that it was slightly aiming down towards the model. Pro Tip: Don’t be a total newb and block your own light. The second light was behind the mode. I put a pink color gel on and had it pointing towards the wall behind the model. I tried to to match the color of the bikini as best I could to create continuity between the colors. The light stand behind the model had to be removed in post.
