WOW that’s just awesome photography!

It happens if you look for it
As you know I love to play with light, and although I love to use plugins for film looks and sometimes enhance a lens flare here and there, my intent is to always get it right in camera.
By they way if you want some of the best tinting and special effects software make sure to check out BorisFX, it’s the best I’ve ever worked with.

Anyway today I want to share this image from Claudia

You did not expect that did you….

Sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn’t
But you should always try it.
Shoot from different angles, but also during warm ups, and always treat the shots as if they are real shots.
In most cases these images are great for behind the scenes fun, memories etc. but sometimes you end up with something really special.

Day of the dance, photographing motion

In my work I love motion
For me adding some motion to a photo always adds so much more than just that motion. Somehow you just keep looking at the image.
To freeze motion with strobes you have to make sure you use strobes with a fast flash duration. For most situations a flash-duration of 1/2000 is enough for a proper “freezing the action shot”. Of course you can also play with this technique. For example use a fast strobe on the face of the model but use a very slow strobe as accent to get some nice blurs in the highlights.
