Zombies in the woods are always a pleasure to shoot. Combine that with an excellent makeup team and a model who’s willing to be covered in syrup based blood while exposing himself to some pretty ugly British weather and you’ve got yourself the potential for some amazing imagery.

For this location shoot, I’d decided to travel light and use my wireless-triggered, off camera flash setup with a mixture of basic modifiers (bare bulbs, silver brollies and small diffuser). The second half of the shoot was shot with just the remaining available light.

Thanks to Phil Prior we shot some behind the scenes footage that I’ve hastily edited. Below is the video shot on the day.
