During the glamour workshops it’s always a question what I will do.
Together with the Advanced workshops these are the workshops were I love to experiment, freak and sometimes do things I never did before. Add to this a great model like Nirmala and you know it’s “party” time….. In this blog post some of the images and some of the techniques discussed.
Friday it was time for the small flash workshop with Nadine as my model.
During the small flash workshop the main thing I teach the students is how to work with both E-TTL and full manual mode. The thing I focus up at the start of the workshop is that E-TTL can be easily “fooled” or in other words is not perfect. By explaining this and also explaining how to solve it (and throwing in manual mode with a light-meter) the students are beginning to recognize the problems in a scene and most importantly learn how to counteract the problems.
The fun thing is that you will see that after the first setup most students already pick this up with the next setup.
And to be honest it’s not difficult, but you have to see it to understand it 🙂
Last Friday Lisanne visited our studio to be the model for the glamour workshop.
I normally don’t shoot images that are not safe for work but Lisanne wanted a shot with a blue necklace which I intended to be never put online, however seeing the outcome I just loved it so much I needed to share it with you guys, do remember however that it’s a not safe for work image, so if you’re offended by this kind of glamour don’t click through 😀

Jessica was our model for the Advanced III workshop from last Saturday.
The Advanced III workshop is aimed at working outside and so it is that when the weather allows we will go outside and work with a mix of rangers or small flash. This time we choose for small flash.
The gear used in the outside shots :
Canon 5DMKII
Canon 24-105 F4 L IS
Pocketwizard TT5 and TT1
Sekonic L758
Canon 580EXII
