420 Location Lighting Fun

Kent had us make snoots and barn doors, then set us loose across Mount Pleasant. Here are some shots.

Tanya, whilst making snoots, before departure.

Snoot over strobe on camera, directed at Tanya's face, shot with an 8mm fisheye just for kicks. Thank Tanya for the fisheye fun.

Kent, posing as a super hero. I wish I had more time to refine my idea, but we had to be part of a PR shoot. This was my shoot.

One strobe with snoot on light stand, probably raised over 6 feet, pointed down to illuminate Kent's face. Libby held another strobe by the first, snooted and pointed to define the shadow. We used one of those small, circular fun strobey things on the floor to illuminate behind Kent's head.

Libby's shoot.
Libby, looking super hipster or indie. Or both.

Strobe with snoot, bearclawed to a tree about 3 or 4 feet in front of Libby. Strobe with barn door stuck in tree for rim light.

More of Libby looking super indie/hipster.

Same set up as last shot, although I think I used the small, circular fun strobey thing for more fill, I just held it over my head.

Libby, holding light, cause she can.

Same light set up, except Libby held the small, circular fun strobey thing in her hands.

Libby, holding the world in her hands. Pretty epic.

Same light set up. Libby held her hand in front of the small, circular fun strobey thing, obviously.

Woo!

Underwater diptych

Bought a disposable underwater camera for some river fun last weekend...Hooked. I want to get an underwater/waterproof point and shoot. Here's a diptych...Coulda been better, but it was hard to frame in murky water.
