We all have our weaknesses. For a lot of photographers, lighting is usually one of them. Natural light is easy.
Flashes, strobes, softboxes, ubrella’s on the other hand…
Like, wtf.
As part of my creative learning, I borrowed a friend’s lighting set up for a gig and was playing around with it.
Do not be intimidated by my awesome.
These outtakes were awesome.
I learn by playing.
Poor Mom was just ignoring me.
FINALLY started to get the hang of it. Not perfect but learning is how it goes.
Note to self: put light higher so it doesn’t glare in the glasses.
And my “models” were so cooperative and helpful. So helpful.
It will be very interesting tonight, as I actually have to use this light. But I do really like it, I enjoy the effect. It reminds me of the work by Christopher Rothecker, which is a good thing.
Wish me luck.
