Andrew Myers – Part 2

New shirt, new shoes. Had to give it another “go.”

580 @ 1/2 in a softbox camera right, 285hv @ 1/6 bare camera left

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.
