Meet one of my sister-in-laws...Rachael! I think she's the only one that hasn't graced my blog yet. I've been begging her for years to let me shoot her, and she finally had to give in, as she's creating a website to display her awesome interior design skills! We found some new spots to shoot and I got to practice my new off-camera lighting techniques!
Woo-woo!
Love this shot in black and white...




So next we moved to another location and I got out my light! A few weeks ago I was lucky enough to attend the One Light Workshop and finally erased some of my fears regarding getting my flash off camera. Now, I've been using off-camera lights for my church formals and also at receptions for the last couple of years...but I wanted to learn a little bit more about lighting clients in outdoor situations when it's too dark for even my 5d mkII to handle. Also, off-camera flash can really add some drama to your photos. Anyway...I'm definitely not claiming to be an expert, and I need a lot more practice...but I really like the way these turned out!
