I took this photo during one of @trompie-van-der-berg ‘s On Locaction Lighting workshops. I went for a more dark and dramatic B/W edit.

Close up B/W portrait. (Cropped close during editing). Impromptu portrait shoot in my small home studio. Due to a low ceiling, I could not get the height of the flash very high. Key light was an AD200 Pro and the hair light/fill light a Godox V860ii.
ISO 160, 1/250 sec, F/8. Fujifilm X-T3, 50-140mm F/2.8

This portrait of Michaela was shot in the old Kimera studio. I had done a few courses and was really starting to enjoy the Black and White genre. Jenna did the make up and hair, and too this day I recon this is one of my favourite shots of Michaela 🙂

I used a 1000-watt continuous light through a huge softbox. That light was so hot, it warmed up the whole house! But it taught me a lot about lighting,…Read More

Flambient = Flash + Ambient Lighting
HDR = High Dynamic Range (Multiple Exposures)1 Comment-
Flambient vs HDR
Personally, I don’t think it matters much. It’s about what works best for you and is acceptable to your clients. Earlier in my career, I used flash, but I found the time and effort spent didn’t justify the earnings. Nowadays, with cameras offering more dynamic range and with improved post-processing algorithms and batch…Read More

#ProPhotoCritique
A well executed portrait of Mike, but for a character portrait where the emphasis is on expression and facial features, a tighter crop could be more effective.
