Some more tips from a workshop
Today some more images and tips from the workshop I did last week with Susanne.
About technique and more.
A small tips video on the lightmeter
Because there are so many questions about the light meter, we shot a small video covering the basics.
And actually everything you need to know I think to start using the meter.
Expressions during the workshop
Today some images from the workshop we did last week with Susanne with a tip.
Susanne has been a model for me for a long time and it’s always fun to work with her. In this workshop I gave a lot of attention to small changes in expression to make an image “speak” to the viewer. Often this is overlooked and in my opinion good shots are missed by that. It’s not one of the easiest things to do however, so it will help when you get your model 100% at ease and shoot a series in “quick” mode letting the model run through different small changes in expressions, you will end up with mostly shots are not 100% what you want but trust me there will be a few that will tilt the WOW factor to the very positive side.
When does inspiration goes wrong
We all know the saying “this image was done inspired by”.
Normally on the blog I will post topics containing technique, images, videos etc. but today I want to try something new, let’s interact.
I think it’s almost impossible to do something really 100% unique, something that has never ever been done, we see this in Hollywood and in a lot of areas, there are some amazing new products, movies, images etc. but making something 100% unique, something that has never before been tried, or done I think is almost impossible. And of course I also have my inspirations, photographers like David Lachapelle, Erwin Olaf, Mario Testino etc. they all are influencing my work and when you know it you can probably see it in most of my shots, however I also live by the rule that you should always try to improve your work or the work you are using as inspiration, and by improving I more mean change it so it fits your vision, or to make it your own.
