Been a while…

Been a while since updated the blog. Over the next few days will upload some shots from recent shoots and some travelling shots as well.
In the meantime in the name of all things vain, here are a few self portraits.
Much prefer to be the one behind the camera then in front of the lens, but still can be fun to muck around a bit at times.
This was a very straightforward set-up consisting of a single Nikon SB800 shooting through a half shrouded umbrella and a solid black background. This is a great way to play with shadows. For triggering the camera I used a aputure coworker remote release. Images were shot on the D300 using the Nikon 35mm 1.8 prime lens.
