You’ll never get that again

And working with motion is without a doubt one of those things. But although freezing motion can be awesome, think about jumps or just a flick of the hair, incorporating motion into the shot is even more fun. In today's video it's just about that. How to get awesome one time effects with adding motion to strobes and of course how to get special effects by moving the camera.

You will never get this

A new model

We are always looking for new models For the workshops it's always nice to work with new talent. And today I love to introduce Marit. Marit is a participant of the "Miss Netherlands" and actually lives in Emmeloord, our home town, what a coincidence.

That Hollywood effect

It's weird but it does work When we watch movies there is one thing that always draws my attention. The flashlights. Let me explain.

Using separation with smoke to glue the scene

Sometimes it's not black and white People often claim that "this is the way" and "the only way". For photography I always thing "there are more ways to do it". And that goes without a doubt for smoke.

Don’t do this but in this case do exactly that

Backlighting the right way When I started with model photography I remember that the first time I used a backlit model I was over the moon with the results. "Wow it looks like an aura".... and indeed it did. And maybe it was in my advantage that we didn't have 65MP cameras at that moment, because there are some things that you can better not do.

If you want to use smoke you have to check out this

Smoke in the studio is always fun So today part I in a series on smoke. I've been using smoke almost immediately when I started with model photography in my own "studio". Somehow smoke is magic during a photo-shoot. I often joke that if the model is "so-so" or the set is awful, just pump in some smoke and you have a killer shot. Of course it's not that easy, although in essence it does work that way, smoke is a real mood maker.

Plexiglas is great for backdrops

Today in the blog a quick video tutorial about using plexiglass in a scene where we use our Profold backdrop with floor

Mixing colored lights with strobes

Mixing light sources can be loads of fun I've talked about it many times on the blog, but today we are adding one detail that will give you a lot more control over the look of the set. During the workshops I always try to put in as many techniques as possible in the sets. Which also means I sometimes have to create a problem to solve.

A vintage Charvel

This time a very special model It's no secret that besides photography, recording music and playing/collecting guitars is a huge passion of mine. So when we add a new guitar to the collection I love to combine the two and take the guitar to the studio for some quick shots.
