I'm having fun with one of my classes. We're doing a lot of portrait and lighting workshops, which is the area I need the most help in. I never thought I'd like portraiture so much, but now that I'm actually figuring out the lighting on my own, it doesn't seem like such a hard task anymore. All I want to do is take portraits now.
That's it for now..
First try at portraits without the help of another photog. We only had one softbox, a back light and a reflector.. and some of these were only taken with the modeling light because there were about 10 other students shooting at once..only one had the pocket wizards and had to switch off. I'm not putting them all on here. If you want to see the rest, they're on my Flickr.
This one was in my apartment with natural light.
Two of my favorites from today. Kim was the best model for the day. This is my first try at studio lighting in 3 years. The last time I did this, it was a disaster. I think I got some ok shots. I really want to learn more and maybe eventually get into commercial photography.
