Diwali-Themed Fashion Shoot in Chelsea

In this glamorous two-hour session, I had the opportunity to photograph the talented actress and model Melanie Chandra, showcasing her custom-made gown for an upcoming Diwali celebration that evening. We started out with some behind-the-scenes shots as she was styled by her makeup and hair artist (accompanied by her 2 adorable daughters), and afterwards we then we took some portraits in the picturesque Chelsea area near the celebration, which included street-shots and indoor shots in a local art gallery.

Here are some of my favorite images from this shoot (click/tap to view full size and un-cropped):

All images in this blog post were shot on a Nikon D850 using a 24-85mm zoom lens, and all individually post-processed in Adobe Lightroom using custom-built presets.
