I am packing my gear to
fly home to Atlanta after an amazing OneLight
workshop here in Indianapolis. Many thanks to
Nate and Amanda
for hosting in their
beautiful 1920's built home.
Here's the group of us....
Big thanks to our two subjects Jessica....
... and Shelly ...
Shelly saw a pool at a neighbor's house and said she would jump in it if asked. It was 12:30am when we were shooting the photo above so I thought we might be pushing our luck if we hopped a fence. So we grabbed a water hose. And yes, two lights were used in the photo above.
You can find more pictures here on Flickr.
Thanks again everyone for coming out to the OneLight!
Cheers,
Zack

OneLight - Salt Lake City

The Salt Lake City OneLight workshop was a huge
success despite some travel drama. BIG thanks
to
Davina Fear
for hosting the workshop, doing all the groundwork,
and giving me a warm place to rest my head. And big
thanks to all of you who came out for it! Thanks to
everyone for taking the risky trip to the roof! It
was worth it wasn't it?
Thanks to Shanda and Randy for being our fantastic subjects for the shoot.
One of my favorite demonstrations I do at a workshop is walking into an environment that looks like this....
Then, without changing a thing in the environment we are shooting, we can make a photo like this with ZERO PhotoChopping....
OH! ETA - Thank you Shannon from Lucky Red Hen photography for your wonderful gift to me. I had forgotten how great of a band the Replacements were. And the book you gave me was so good that I read it twice on the way home yesterday! Shannon found out that I was a big fan of The Decemberists. The lead singer for that band, Colin Meloy, wrote the book for the 33 1/3 series. Reading his book took me back to the very early formative years of mine that were very similar to his experience. It made me remember so many things about my life. Thanks.

Lightsphere Mod Part 1
17/03/07 01:02 PM | Permalink
I like shooting with hotshoe flashes. I also like using grids. Grids don't work quite as well on hotshoe flashes like they do with strobes that have parabolic reflectors. Thanks to Julie A. for this awesome idea for a mod to Gary Fong's Lightsphere. Here is part one of the modification. I'll test it later this weekend.
Cheers,
Zack
Smallest OneLight Ever...

I had a very small
OneLight workshop today in honor of our friend Jane
being in town from her native home of Western
Australia. Julie was invited to come up for this
workshop because she has been so helpful in trying
to get a OneLight to southern Florida and the
dates just never can meet up with her schedule.
Christina came in again and was a trooper of a subject for us. She is always such a dream to work with.
Man... are we all ever sad to see Jane go. Her next stop is Boston.
Cheers,
Zack
