Product Shots
Step onto South Broad
Been lacking in posts lately, but not for a lack of activity. Actually behind on posting a few shows.
Regardless, fresh from a promo shoot with the South Philly hip-hop collective, South Broad at their home base. Just a sample from the 4 hour long shoot. Keep an eye out for more to be posted as they are edited.

Didn’t I just shoot this same guitar last sunday? Oh well, regardless. There’s a heat wave on so nobody in their right mind wants to go shoot outside. Or leave their house for that matter. So hey, I was productive.

Just having some more fun in the home “studio”. A modest 3 light setup to get this interesting shot. Lots I would of done differently, but also lots I liked. So, here you go ::

…On a sunday afternoon, what do you do?
Go around your house looking for stuff to shoot, thats what.
This was done in my home, on my couch with a black sheet form Evil*Mart (purchased long ago, I don’t go there anymore ).

This was all done in about 30 minutes, on my couch with a white sheet from Evil*Mart as a background. Simple two light setup, using a lighting kit that all together cost under $500. When you figure most “professionals” use lights that costs thousands of dollars, it’s pretty amazing what you can pull off on the cheap.

It’s a web site devoted to off camera lighting, on a budget.
One of the biggest single destroyers of good photos is the little pop up flash you have right on your camera. Get that thing off camera and your whole world will change.

I’ve broken the lighting equipment free from my closet lately. This was a simple snap to test some cables & such. I’ve always wanted to do cliche vegetable pictures, but with my own twist…so keep an eye out for something slightly different than this pretty typical shot.
