Description
e·qui·poise1. Equality in distribution, as of weight, relationship, or emotional forces; equilibrium.
2. A counterpoise; a counterbalance.
3. Symmetry.
Pretty much the same lighting set up in both. A softbox on one side, gold reflector on other. Two flashes behind the head, one pointing at background, one towards the camera. Yup.

It's just metallic makeup. Bronze on the girl, gold on the boy.

I just love how all your pictures are so vivid!! It's incredible..do you use an programs to alter it or is it all in the lighting?

With these I did very little. I was suprised how vivid the colours came out and especially how brilliantly the metallic makeup reacts to light. I stepped the exposure down a tiny bit in RAW and blurred the backgrounds a bit in PS. That's about it.

Guess that's what eye candy is about
The concept is very nice, I love it.
Have you tried to take two different shhots, anf have a half face of each mixed into one? This could be interesting to see...
I like a lot all the shots from that serie anyway

No didn't try that... also, I shoot the boy on monday and the girl today so then I couldn't sort of go back and change the pictures I already had if you see what I mean.
