Rose in the fairy garden

Steven Perdikis

These images were captured about a month ago, and the retouch and editing process is something that I was very meticulous about.  Rose contacted me through my Instagram page, and we chatted for a bit before organising a plan for an elaborate shoot.

A few weeks later, we sporadically decided on a date to shoot, and a theme – fairy garden style portraits. The timing was perfect based on the location we decided to use, a National Park called Anstey Hill, located in Adelaide, South Australia.

These images were captured with the intent of being atmospheric and dramatic. I am very pleased with the outcomes of the images, especially as these were all outdoor portraits. Many were shot with off camera flash, in conjunction with natural light.

The flash, a Godox TT685N used a honeycomb grid diffuser over the speedlight head, and was located a few meters away from Rose.

The location was simply stunning!
