Week 3- first model shoot

Looking through my first actual model shoot and I cant believe its over. I saw a few problems with leaving auto-focus on so I will be manual focusing all next shoot. My metering was as good as it could get with the lights. It was very dark in the building we were in.

Speaking of the building, it is an abandoned building in cincinnati that they are starting construction on next month to make them loft apartments. I did have to get used to sharing the subject of the pictures but everyone else was as timid as I was at the beginning so I wanted to make sure that I got the pictures I wanted and got in close like we were instructed. nobody was giving much direction so I am very glad the models were kind of given an idea before they got there.

Here are some of my favorites from tonight, they are unedited, so yeah and the noise that you might see is from the iso being so high.

Week 2-lighting

This is my neweat passion. Lighting, i so badly want to experiment with different placements, filters, harshness, softness, brightness... i have a new love he is hootie the grey card. He makes shabby lighting look great! Me oh my. I am so tempted to break out my slef made softbox and make more and bring a friend over to model for me. I am restraining until this next week. I did find out for sure models will be at the next shoot! One drawback with that though.2 models, 8 photographers, i think i might have to be aggressive,...B-E- AGGRESSIVE (random chearleading quote).

That is all enjoy my test shoots from lighting practice.

I am still nervous and very excited. we didnt do a lot of shooting today just some test shots with iso and more light metering techniques specific for Fashion Photography.
