   Valentina, New York 1996    
 

From cover shoot of Valentina for lingerie trade publication BFIA's December 1995 issue,Steve Landis and art director Greg Timpone decided to create a winter effect in the studio, using the very low tech approach of plastic snow thrown by hand, from a ladder between the camera and the Italian model, Valentina from Elite, New York. Mathew Williams created the hair style and Alphonse did the make-up. Landis used a Nikon F3 with a 35mm f1.4 wide angle Nikkor lens. He lit the photo for a wrap around white effect, with assorted strobes and shot EPR-64 (E-6 processed at L&I Color, NYC) film.
