Strobist Experiments

Posted on by

Inspired by San Francisco Photographer Dustin Diaz (www.flickr.com/photos/polvero) we hooked up with local photographer Eddie Griffiths on Saturday for a night of experimental strobism.  It was freezing cold and slightly damp, but very rewarding as the images above show.  Layton also got to try another homage to Dustin, his first miniature shoot.  Radioactive Homer worked so well he’s itching to shoot another one…watch this space!

This themed shoot has been on the cards for a wee while and has been a bit of a ‘pet project’ for us.  We are so pleased with the results and couldn’t wait to share them.  This themed shoot is for our new look portfolio (to be launched early next year).

Following on from our night shoot experiments we took Maggie out again during the day to try to experiment balancing ambient light in bright daylight.  Here are the results of our experiment.

While researching how to do this we came across a great tutorial from Phlearn – I’ve already posted a link to the tutorial in a separate post.  We based our experiments on trying to emulate the shots created during the tutorial with the thought that once we worked out what we were doing we could use that knowledge in our own shoots down the track.
