Last Saturday we had a truly great Photographing People Part 3 class here in Orem, Utah. We where suppose to have it in Salt Lake City but moved it to InStudio and Utah Valley because of rain 🙂 We set up 4 work stations, my main camera room for shooting with strobes , showroom for window light, classroom as an experimental studio with metal halide light etc. Workstation 4 was to go outside regardless of weather and make the best of it. We put two and two students working together pr model. They get one hour to alternate shooting and assisting at each work station. In Part 3 MaryLyn and myself coach going from team to team helping out. This way they can truly learn and experience how much better they can shoot with an assistant. After our Pizza break we all went outside for the night as a group. It was so much fun, we brought portable tungsten spots, reflectors etc. The highlight of the day was when we photographed a Wedding couple 10 ft from a train passing full speed! I want to give you a link to one of the great students, Raquel’s Blog here you can see some fun samples from the pictures she shot this day. I think going through the Photographing People Part 1-3 truly help you move up to a level of truly having more professional looking images. Learning to create more depth and dimension in your shots controlling color temperature and also more 3 dimensional lighting. The lamp you see in this overview shots (Thanks Joel Jenkins) is a Lowel 650w Fresnel Spot running with an inverter of a running cars battery.
