Image Show “Bar Scene” – Off Camera Flash Lighting Technique Tutorial – Off Camera Strobe Lighting

Posted in Off Camera Flash, One Day Workshop, Tutorial No comments

Image Show “Bar Scene” – Off Camera Flash Lighting Technique Tutorial

Final image- used one of my LR presets and Photoshop

 

Concept and Composition

This photo was taken at my mentoring workshop in San Francisco Chinatown. Whenever you mix high fashion with an interesting looking liquor bar, it always seems to work. I’m a sucker when I see glass filled with colored liquid. It always makes for a nice background especially if you add some light to it. Fashion ads are filled with images using two opposing yet complimentary models together. I call it the Ying-Yang effect. I figured if I combined all these elements- models and bar, it would look pretty darn compelling.

In regards to composition, I created a triangle with my subjects’ heads meeting at the top of the triangle and then their bodies forming the sides of the triangle. The space separating the two subjects creates a pleasing and flowing effect and it creates diagonals which contrast the vertical beams of the shelves displaying the liquor. It is always important when composing your subjects to make sure heads are not at the same level- place one higher than the other. I contend that stacking heads with one head on top of another in any way will almost always look good.

Lighting

My initial set up was to have two side lights. I placed two Strobie 130s on each side of my subjects. After looking at the results, I thought it would add some drama to add red light by adding a red gel over my strobes that would not only light my subject but also spray on the unique ceiling pattern which was white and onto the liquor bottles. This would provide a night club feel with the colored light. Furthermore, when you have a lot of distracting elements in the background, if you shine colored light on it, the mono color effect tends to de-clutter the distracting elements by tying them together with a uniform color. One has to be careful using colored light on subjects because this will cause the skin to look discolored and unnatural. To remedy this I used my Killer Video Light with a color temperature of 5600K and shined this from above using my light stick. When using a light source mounted on a boom, we can get the light above the subjects and close without getting in the way of the photographer. I used my radio Tiny Triggers to fire flashes wireless- because it employs a radio signal, strobes can be triggered without a line of sight which is a major advantage over using the TTL system built into the camera and using expensive proprietary strobes.

Post Processing

My typical workflow is to import into Adobe Lightroom and then assign one of my SR LR presets to them. I love presets because compared to Photoshop actions, they are faster. I can see the final results of the preset in seconds verses running an action which may take minutes before I can see the effect. Of course Photoshop is very powerful and you can do more but to get a general idea on how you want to process an image, I like the speed of LR. So as I scroll through the hundred or so presets I custom designed, I finally stop on one that gives me the effect I want. I then fine tune the LR settings to my liking and then import into Photoshop to finish it off. In Photoshop I edit things like- fix skin, reduce hot spots, overlay a color over the entire image, add textures, etc. Below I will show the original image, LR editing and then the final editing done with Photoshop.

I really like the way this image turned out and is one of my favorite images, I hope I was able to give some insight on how I created it. Please share with me your thoughts!!

Ghetto Studio Tricks – Using Off Camera Flash for Studio Lighting

Posted in Off Camera Flash, One Day Workshop, Seminar No comments

 

I was “volunteered” (by my lovely wife) to take my daughter’s kindergarten class graduation pictures.

I was of course told the parents don’t expect anything “special” but if I was going to take my camera out of the bag, I wanted them half way decent! Geez, some of them know that I’m a professional photographer so my reputation was on the line too- I’m sure many of us have experienced situations like this. I’m not really a studio or children’s photographer but I was up to the challenge and I actually had a good time taking pictures of these kids, they’re so stinkin’ cute, how could I not have a good time?

This was a really good experience for me because I realized when doing this type of photography, you need everything consistent in regards to subject position, lighting, etc. This can be a challenge because kids can’t follow complicated directions, so I had to be systematic and simplistic in my approach to guarantee consistent results. For example I laid a strip of tape on the ground and asked each kid to touch their tippy toes on the tape. This would keep the subject in the same location and ensure that their shoulders would be square to the camera.

If I was going to get paid doing this type of thing I would set up differently, like using a posing chair so I could control the angle of body towards the camera, this would level shoulders horizontally too because kids stand differently. I could also adjust height too with a posing chair. I might even use a tripod!!! GASP!!! I would also use four lights and a darker more professional background but heck, I just wanted to knock this out in an hour so this is what I came up with…

My Budget Set Up

  • Two Strobie 130s – two very basic flash heads, manually controlled (less than $300 for two strobes)
  • Tiny Triggers- wireless flash system ($229)
  • Shoot thru umbrella ($20)
  • Basic light stand with umbrella mount ($50)
  • White Sheet from Target ($5)
  • Canon 5D mkII with 24-105L (I probably could have used my Canon G10 with the same results! LOL)

Here are my camera settings: ISO 400, 1/100, F5.6, at 105mm. I set my white balance to “shade” to warm up image.

I set my main flash with umbrella at 1/8 power and another flash pointed at the background to reduce shadow lines and brighten background at 1/16 power.

I’m glad I decided to do a studio set up because the day we shot was very overcast and all the available light would be very flat. Learning how to use your flash can guarantee a consistent light quality no matter where you are as long as you have a room to shoot in or some nice shade. A room controls temperature and eliminates wind. I can create this look nearly anywhere I go.

It actually took more time getting them changed into the cap and gown than it did taking the pictures, we had two gowns so my wife could get them one ready while I shot the other. It was fun trying to get the kids to give me their most natural smile. This was a challenge but the smiles they gave me made this project so worth the effort!

If you’re on a budget, a portable, small studio set up like this can do the job. Don’t feel intimidated by some photographers using a lot of fancy and expensive equipment. If one has a good knowledge of light- how to control and modify it, anyone can create a nice image we can be proud of.

How to Maximize Learning – San Francisco Photography Class – Advanced Digital Photography – Professional Photography Course

Posted in One Day Workshop No comments

How to Maximize Learning

There are many people who read my blog who have a deep desire and perhaps a dream to become a photographer who can produce professional quality work and either earn money or more money with their imagery. Quite frankly that is a lofty goal and is not easy to do especially if you want photography as a career in your life. As the world famous photographer Gary Fong once said, “there are easier ways to make money”.

But life isn’t all about making money but pursuing dreams that bring fulfilment and finding a career that others can truly benefit from. The reality is that we all need to eventually pay our bills so we do need to make a decent amount of money with our careers. Even if photography is just a hobby for you, wouldn’t it be great if your hobby could pay for itself?

There is literally an ENDLESS amount of information out there about photography, most of it for free and most of it is unfiltered so how does a person know what to believe or pursue if there are unlimited learning options available- Do I take a community photography course? Which workshop should I go to? What editing program to use and how do I use it? Do I need a lightsphere? What equipment should invest in? Is there a specific type of imagery that will help me book more lucrative jobs? The questions are endless and the answers are many but who do we trust and believe?

If we had all the time in the world and all the money in the world, then life would be easy but most of us don’t have this luxury so we need to maximize learning… which means looking for the best teachers in the industry. Usually, the best teachers will be highly successful and have many opportunities open to them so in order for them to take the time to individually teach us, there is a high cost involved. Yet their teaching will more than pay for itself like a good investment because they have filtered the endless amounts of information for us. They give us the gold nuggets without having to spend years panning for it.

The bottom line is, If we want to learn photography at a high level, seek to learn under the best teachers at whatever cost because what they teach us will not only save time, effort and money, but their words of wisdom will take us to levels we never thought possible and quite possibly help us realize our dreams and goals in life.

Workshop FAQ

:: Why is this workshop not on a weekend? ::
We want passionate students who are willing to take their photography education seriously.  We are interested in students who are willing to sacrifice time on weekdays which will allow them to book their own jobs on the weekends, i.e. weddings, etc.

:: Who is this workshop for? ::
Whether you are a full-time photographer, a weekend warrior, or on the verge of turning professional, as long as one has a seriously desire to master the craft of photography, this is is workshop for you. Before coming to this workshop, we expect you to know how to use the camera in manual mode and have good understanding of the DSLR camera settings such as aperture, shutter speed, iso, metering, exposure & focusing.

:: What is our mentoring program goal? ::
The goal is to teach and develop photographers from the ground up and turn them into elite photographers through a year long teaching process that will cover all facets of portraiture and wedding photography. Scott will covers topics that are relevant to their learning and will provide coaching along the way to maximize their learning experience–ensuring their competence at each juncture. Every lecture is at least three hours featuring Scott himself or a special speaker who is an expert on the lesson topic. The optional live session with models consist of 3 hours of practical hands-on learning and experimentation on exposure, lighting and posing.

::What should I expect?
Lecture  - Scott’s lectures will focus on mastering various techniques on lighting and posing.  He will demonstrate how he achieves his award winning imagery; how he interacts with clients to maximize their beauty, how to bring out emotion, how to work with difficult clients, how to find amazing light and how to create it with the use of flash and video light. He will also cover how to modify light with the use of gels, snoots, umbrellas, etc. Scott is an expert at using the most basic equipment yet achieve world class imagery.

Lectures Featuring Special Speakers – Guest speakers will be experts on the topic that they will be speaking on, highly skilled and knowledgeable in real life application. We want to offer the very best learning experience for students not only learning from Scott himself but from other world class photographers/instructors.

Live Shoot Sessions – An opportunity for mentees to apply the techniques they have learned on exposure, lighting and posing and to create marketable images with impact.  On the scheduled live shoot session we will break into groups of 4-5, participants will take turns directing a specific set up with a model(s). The leader will be allowed 3-4 minutes to complete their vision. Yes, this is a very nerve wrecking experience but we want to duplicate a typical scenario any professional photographer on assignment would encounter. The live shoot portion of the workshop is an intensive boot camp on posing, lighting, exposure, small flash/video lighting.

:: Is transportation provided? ::
Each student is responsible for their own transportation to workshop locations. However, carpooling to workshops is encouraged–to minimize the number of vehicles at shooting locations, minimize parking costs and more importantly, an opportunity to get to know each other better.

:: What happens if I have to cancel? ::
We are unfortunately not able to offer refunds because of the limited number of workshops and seats available. Once a spot is scheduled, it is no longer available for anyone else. We have this policy in place to assure that only those truly interested and serious about the workshops sign up.

Participants must agree that Scott Robert Photography Workshop has the right to use any submitted imagery for use in any of its publications, printed materials or electronic media, such as but not limited to any of their web sites or their affiliates’ web sites. Any photos taken at the workshop are not allowed for the submission of any photo competition. Model releases will not be provided to students.
