Miriam Pierzak is a model born in Łódż, Poland, who now resides in London, UK. She is both a model and a professional ballerina. Mirian was at Zoi Morgan’s studio in Den Haag, Holland when the photos were taken. I was at my home office in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, USA. I was connected to the remote camera using Zoom. I also use my iPhone 16 Pro Max in FaceTime mode for both a better audio connection (to my hearing aids) and to have a separate view of the model with Zoi’s Smart Phone pointed at her. The background in these photos is part of one room in Zoi’s studio and home.

The tethered camera was a Fujifilm X-T5, with a XF35mm f1.4 R lens. The exposure was 1/250 at f4, and the ISO was 1000, all of which I selected. The focus was set by Pattern Metering (on the model’s face). Natural and Artificial Lighting was used. The local Netherlands time for this set of images was c. 1630 hours.

I edited these images in 2026 using Adobe Bridge, Photoshop 2026, Reblum Retouch, and Anthropics Portrait Pro. The Color images were converted from color to Black and White using the Silver Effects in the Nik 6 Collection (C005 HSH). The images were sized 16x24x300 for editing and downsized to 8x12x72 for display here.
