First Engagement Session w/ Kim & Allen

Big thanks to Anh for inviting me to shoot with him and Peter yesterday. It was a great experience, and I will now be offering this service.
It was an overcast day with light rain. Great day to be shooting, less the rain, as it was basically a huge softbox outside. But that wasn’t enough for me, and I got to use my own softbox that I just received a couple days earlier. I picked up the Lastolite 24″ EZYBOX from BH and couldn’t be happier. I used it with one 580EX II and triggered it with the CyberSync system.
lights, camera, action!

I haven’t been shooting cars much lately, but I recently gave mine a bath and figured it was time I give it a proper shoot. I brought out the strobes with the intention of only using two to light my car up - “less is more.” Why use 3 when 2 will suffice? Anyway, it was a bit difficult to balance the lighting, and it’s still not quite there, but it’s an improvement.
I also haven’t done any rig shots with my new wheels, so here are a couple. Would have had more but the shoot was cut short due to rain.
*note: images were processed on my dad’s uncalibrated monitor and color/saturation/exposure may be slightly off.
I can’t remember the last time I bought soda

Anyone want to buy a camera? Hahaha. No. Seriously, though.
My trusty iPod Mini!
Check the EXIF for the last two shots. The strobe settings are the same.
