Today a small blogpost (but very important one) about a term called TFP.
TFP means officially : Time For Print.
Often now a days it’s called : Time For CD
So what is TFP?
TFP means that you do a photoshoot (or something else) without getting paid.
“You said what? I don’t get paid for my time, what is going on?”
Yep you heard me correctly, YOU (and your whole team) doesn’t get paid.
Some people will now say that they will never do stuff like that (anymore), but let’s think about it.
During our stay in the states I’m joined by several guestbloggers to keep you guys getting the daily dose of information, today a quick tip by Erik Schimmel.
Alternative use of the Quadra Reflector Adapter RQ-EL
Quick tip for owners of a Quadra Reflector adapter and a Nikon SB900.
Some time ago, by chance or inquisitive nature, I found an additional use of the Quadra Reflector adapter (QRA) I’d like to share. I was trying to find a way to use one of my speedlights in a soft box. I own a Lastolite Ezybox, but I’ve never been really happy with it. So I was searching for an alternative. The Nikon SB900 can be inserted in the QRA and with a bit of gentle force, it can be wedged in very tight.
During our recent “workshop/seminar tour” I worked with several models, in this blog post some images I personally liked from these sessions. Remember that most are done during situations that are not really making it possible to shoot portfolio material to say the least. With the retouching of these images I always play around with different colors to give the models more to choose from, so there will be some color differences between images from the same set.
The first ones were done during the pre-con workshop I taught during Photoshop World in Washington DC.
New York, somehow this city has a weird attraction on me. I strongly believe that I could spend months over there and just only do street photography and never would be bored. We visited New York a few years ago for a workshop and we spend over a week there and to be honest it yielded the most images I ever shot during a stay somewhere. So when I heard I would be teaching a seminar at B&H in New York I was very excited to also do some street photography there, the only problem for me was that I would only be in New York for one day, but I decided to make the best of it.
In this blogpost some of my favorite shots from that day.
