Jo and Tim Photoshoot Northampton

We were in Northampton this morning photographing Jo and Tim.

Lovely sunny day but very cold so we werent out for long.




Here are a couple of still shots from the shoot for the techies wanting to know how they were shot, as I know there are a few photographers that look at the blog hahaha.

Tim on his own.

The daylight was balanced with the Elinchrom Ranger using a small soft box just to the right of camera. A conversion to Black and White with a little burning in of the background.


For the full length shot of Jo a 16mm lens was used for dramatic effect. Once again using the ranger pack with the soft box left of the camera. And also a bit of jiggery pokery in photoshop.




2 shots taken using the Ring Flash ( my new best friend hahahah)

I always shoot on Manual using a lightmeter for both the ambient light and the flash. You have so much more control than letting the cameras automatic meter control the final result.

Automatic is for point and shoot photographers in my opinion.


Finally an available light shot, using the open shade.
