I'm not a fan of great heights, but with each passing minute I felt less and less resistance to leaning my back against the glass when taking photos with the model.

During this session I alternated between using the Canon R and the Leica M11. Of course, it was a whim. The M is clunky as hell when working like this. I apologize to the old hands, but I don't understand why you do this to yourselves.
R is R. She did the job and didn't protest.
It was a session with a model but also partly a product session. We brought specific frames, and it was also an exceptional situation for me that I was forced to work with constant light. Not with flash as I usually do. The day before this session planned according to a different plan, I was already in Warsaw on another set.
There was no time to repack and travel. However, an unexpected phone call informed me that the planned studio session would be an apartment session. I like to improvise. They say that "if you never get lost, you'll never find a new way". There's something to it. I'd rather lose my way than lose my lens caps.
During this session, I took several photos from above. One of them, in the form of a print in many sizes and types of frames, can be found in my shop. Link here: Prints.
