Many (starting) studio photographers have way too much equipment in their studio. Of course, you have to have a basic set, but keep it simple. It happens quite often that you see a nice picture, but it’s amazing to read the load of equipment they used to make the shot. Anyway, I thought it was about time for myself to avoid this mistake and go back to the basics: shots with just one light source. After all, this is what we practiced during Frank Doorhof’s workshop a few weeks ago.
The shots below were all taken with one strobe with a 21cm parabolic reflector and a 20° grid. Chris, one of my sons, was so kind to act as a model for the occasion. If you’re interested in a more technical background click here.
Next time I’ll try to change from camera postion during the shoot…..
