My blog, although I don’t see myself as a blogger but as a Photographer I will try to blog some interesting material during the weeks.
Expect at least 2 updates a week.
Today the video we shot during the shoot with the Freerunners in Emmeloord testing out the new Elinchrom HS head.
As explained yesterday I was not going for the “standard” day to night look, I mainly wanted to see how far I could push the system to get a nice strobed look without those annoying black trails behind the jumpers which you would normally get when shooting ambient with strobes.
During the test with the Elinchrom HS system I also asked some local Forerunners if they would be interested to do some maneuvers for me to test out the HS system.
Now I was not really interested in doing a day to night shot (to easy) and to be honest the sky was FAR from interesting, so I decided to go for a more fill in flash look slightly overpowering the ambient, something that normally wasn’t possible because you would see irritating black trails behind the jumpers, but with the HS system this should be no issue at all… and indeed 😀 the system works flawless for this.
Now we only spend like 40 minutes with the guys, and it’s the first time I shot freerunners, so be gentle 😀
I wanted a more intense BW but I also included the color version because some people preferred the color versions.

Working on location is always fun, especially if that location is special.
During 2015 we’ve done several workshops in very special locations, now one might not expect it from the Netherlands but we do have a substantial number of castles and victorian houses, and we were very blessed to be able to teach a series of workshops in those stunning locations. Because in most of these locations it’s normally not allowed to shoot let alone give a workshop we had to be extra careful of course and select our sets with care.
Today some of the images from the workshop at Castle Ammersoyen with our model/stylist Nadine.
