Marie at CameraNu.nl

Last week it was the finale of the big CameraNU.nl 10 year event, a period in which one of the largest camerastore from the Netherlands celebrated their 10th year anniversary.

I’ve know them for a long time, even a bit before the official beginning so to say, so it was cool to be asked to do a seminar and live shoot during the opening of their “toppers weekend” with several speakers, today I share some images I shot during that event. Please do take not that the situation was not ideal so don’t judge these images as portfolio images, it’s just to give you an idea of the results we get during an event like this and for the fun of sharing 🙂

I started out with a seminar on the importance of styling and story telling within a photoshoot. After that it was time for Marie to do some portraits with me, we worked our way up from the boring portrait with flat light to more expression, like this example.

After that it was time to start working with the car that was the grand price for one lucky winner.
I started out with explaining how to setup up lights to black all ambient light and letting light in with the dragging the shutter technique after which I started to shoot with Marie. The following images were shot near the end of the demo and include two lights and a smoke machine (because I just love smoke in these kind of settings).
