The Deamonizer

I shot this portrait of a working colleague in the parking garage of our office building over lunch. It was a very simple lighting setup with a shoot-through umbrella on camera right (check the catch-light in the eye) plus a bare speedlight on camera left behind the subject.

  • Camera: Canon EOS 5D Mark II set to Manual Mode
  • Exposure Time: 1/30th second
  • Aperture: f/8

Junior Shooting The Rebel

Today’s picture shows my 10 yo son during one of his first D-SLR shooting sessions with my old Canon Rebel (also known as EOS 350D). I took this picture with my Leica M8, an awesome camera with a very steep learning curve. If you’ve ever shot with a range-finder camera you know what I mean.

A different kind of photo studio

I don’t like white-seamless photo-shootings in windowless studios. Not because I don’t own one but because I think they are lifeless.

I rather go outside – if the light permits it – and do the shooting in a natural environment like my backyard. I shot the picture below with just available light during a evening in early April after the Sun went hiding behind the mountains.

#42/365 Portrait Session

Oh well, it was a heck of a busy day and I was desperately looking for subjects right before midnight to get something for my 365 project. We got that Teddy Bear as a present from my co-workers for our son’s birth and as he (the bear :) ) couldn’t run away or complain, I misused him, grabbed my Ray-Flash adapter and the 100mm Macro and shot him. He is still doing fine, btw :)

I caught a flu which grounded me today but I still was able to get a portrait of our little one…
