New Work: GQ cover with Priyanka Chopra

Working with a major celebrity always has its challenges but combine that with a brief from the art director that requires low light shooting, mixing ambient and continuous light as well as a major time constraint and you've got a photographer on his toes.

My 3rd GQ cover, this one was probably the most stressful. I had a lighting approach in mind but as often happens, it got thrown out the window.

At one point we had three light sources going: a projector throwing an image against a white wall, a couple of gelled 2k's and 5k's to give a 'concert' feel and of course a few strobe lights on our celebrity.

All in all I'm pretty happy with how this shoot turned out, as was the magazine.
