This is Linus 8 month and he was not sitting still and absolutely not looking into the camera. I made sounds and faces and eventually he caught my attention and then he did not let go. One out of 100 he was looking in my direction just to give you a clue :-)
I think we were all laughing quite a lot although I had to force them to look serious this is probably the shooting were I laughed the most. Picture gallery will be ready soon.
A grid and a reflector that is protecting the light from hitting the backdrop makes black from white background. Ofcourse you can fix it with Photoshop but saving time is crucial and then better to get the shot right from the start.
With the help of a fan, a scarf and preventing the light from hitting the backdrop with a Gary Fong (good investment), you can create a glamours look. It is also great fun.
This portrait of these beautiful two is made with a beauty-dish on a rolling stand. You are free to move even when people dance and still have power light available.
Ready for a new start of the year?The photo group classes will begin from next weekend the 29/1 and it does not matter if you are a beginner or a pro, there is always need for improvements. For interest send a request to info@bohallengren.com. A note will be published...
This is from a portrait session earlier but this lady is amazing. The set-up here is with a head light and a gary fong cone towards the face. The trick not to spill light on the back drop and shoot with HSS and AUTO FP but watch out. The flash is much weaker as it is...
First you cool the glass and spray some drops on the side. Then you touch the glass several times to find the right angle. You twist it and smell it. Smell it again. Another picture, woops gone :-)
