workshop views: Philadelphia & D.C.

October 19, 2008

October’s first number of workshops were two dates in Philadelphia and then a workshop in DC.  As with the other workshops on flash photography, the focus was on getting the best results from (mainly) our on-camera speedlights in various scenarios, whether …

for a simple headshot, approximating short lighting such as we’d get in the studio, or …

.
… finding interesting backdrops of the city at night, and figuring out ways to bounce flash off other surfaces.

.
It is always interesting to find all kinds of lighting challenges in the various venues where the workshops are held. In this instance, an exercise in balancing bounced flash indoors, against a brighter outdoors scene .. while not getting your own or your flash’s reflection in the window.

.
Here are some images from the afternoon session where we also worked with manual flash using softboxes.  (Images courtesy of Russ Meseroll.)

Thank you to everyone who attended and also our models.
