You must be strong now as the following pictures will show nothing else but me!
I usually do not like photos being taken of me but sometimes I feel I could need a shower under the softbox, so I can remember what I once looked like when sitting in my rocking chair.
Main light comes from a softbox almost above my head and in a straight line with the lens. Some of this light reflects in a reflector close to the floor.
A few pictures from me and my sisters trip to Italy. We were mainly in Brescia and Verona and enjoyed the opera Turandot in the colloseum . The mood there was just wonderful!
When I was asked to take wedding photos of a good friend of mine who finally found his big love I was honored and simply said ‘yes I do’ .
A nearby park which I cross when jogging has some nice spots, so we decided to shoot in a small clearing where sunlight could easily fall through the trees and provide light and shadow. As often plans do not necessarily work out well. The morning of the wedding I found myself sticking to my tablet to observe satellite pictures in order to estimate when rain would stop. Needless to say that weddings have a tight schedule and so we had to start at 10 anyway. But thank God at least rain stopped shortly after their arrival at the park only leaving heavy clouds that would hide the sun for the next hour, destroying my plans on light and shadow.
I decided to switch on my spare sun and clamped a flashlight with 1/2 orange gel into the trees in order to add some spice to the photos; a friend held a reflector to mirror the artificial sun. I think for most of the pictures this setup worked out well.
I wish you all the best M&R.
