Hi All,

for my hairdresser friend - as part of her course she has to arrange a photoshoot with a model and stuff and has asked me to the photography.

Now, unfortunately, the model is my friend Callum...now he may be built like a brick **** house, but I'm not gay :p

anyway...the shoot will be done at the hairdressers house. She is going to put a plain white sheet up and Callum will be half naked - wearing black jeans. He is a white male, brown hair.

Now as far as lighting goes the hairdresser said she read on the internet how to make her own softboxes and will be making 2 of them (I'm not sure how well these are going to work) but I know her house has a lot of windows so it's always nice and bright in there, so I think I may play tricks with natural lighting...

For the shoot I'll be using my 350D (im a week away from ordering the 40D :mad:) and I think the best lens will be the nifty fifty...

Just wondering if anyone had any general advise really, the hairdressers sister who does beauty will be doing his body work to make his muscles more defined so it should make my job easier with the post processing - I think poses will be thought of there and then on the spot...

Thanks all :)
