Working with backgrounds in the studio
Ok I promised to to blog till Monday, but hey…..
I decided to do an in between blog post about some of the questions that were asked in the last few days, so let’s go.
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.
this weekend no blog…. sorry but good reason :-)
You are used that I almost every day update my blog with a new item, some technique etc.
But this weekend there will be no new updates……
The reason is simple, today I’m turning 40, and as some say live starts at 40 I’m more in the opinion that my 30’s end when I hit 40 so to make a long story short I’ve planned to have my whole midlife crisis in one day (and that’s today), I will just sit down watch a few movies, read some magazines, get some creative ideas and just relax.
On Saturday I will teach the small flash workshop (which is always great for a blog post), and that night we will celebrate my birthday so no time to write than. But when those images are done I will of course pick up the regular schedule again. In the mean time, when you have something you want me to blog about this is the time to post it here and who knows, maybe I will blog about your idea/question.
Have fun this weekend, and I’m looking forward to seeing some ideas down here.
Cherelle fashion 1:1 workshop
Today it was time for a 1:1 workshop with one of the most beautiful models I know (well ok they are all beautiful bit it sounds nice, doesn’t it ?) Cherelle. The 1:1 workshops are always special because the student can make his/her own program, and for me it’s always challenging because I can often do stuff I normally don’t teach during the workshops, or do in my own work.
Using a light source in many ways, the Elinchrom 1.90 octa.
Some light sources can be used in many different ways, I’m an Elinchrom shooter and the two light sources I love most are the Deep Octa and the 1.90 Octa. With the Deep Octa it’s very clear you can use it in many different ways due to the way it has been build/designed by Elinchrom. You can remove the front material, the center diffuser, use deflectors etc. etc. however with the 1.90 octa there is often some more confusion and a lot of people think it can only be used to mimic window light, they are wrong….
