A Harley Davidson and a beautiful model and you get to see it all….

Frank Doorhof’s Digital Classroom, model shoot with a motor

Have you ever wondered how they got those shots?

Well, you’re going to love the Frank Doorhof’s Digital Classroom series.
In these broadcasts, we show you complete setups and tell you about the technique but most of all, we also talk about choosing the right angle, styling, adding elements in the set or for example, smoke, working with lens flares, colors, etc.

And this time we had a very special prop, a Harley Davidson.

In two completely different setups, I show you how to light the set and pose the model, but also how to light in zones and understand feathering and light placement for reflections and covering up light sources.

And the coolest part?
I did it all with the Geekoto strobes, the FlashBender in striplight configuration, and the Rogue Magnetic system.
A complete setup everyone can afford and still gives you awesome results both on location and in the studio.
See frankdoorhof.com/shop for the gear I use.

Here is the episode of the digital classroom.

Digital Classroom results

And of course, you also want to see the results.
Do realize these were all shot during a live broadcast, so not the perfect circumstances to get everything 100% right 😀

Video Ilse

Yesterday you have read about the Ilse Motor session.
I also shot a small backstage video with my iPhone4 and today you can see the end result of that video.

Ilse and her bike

A while ago Ilse asked me if I wanted to shoot her with her Harley Davidson.
Well add a beautiful girl to a Harley and who would have said no…..
