All right! The night was a huge success with lots of happy parents and teens.
For the most part the photos came out very well. Learned a lot along the way too, only second time with these flashes.
Here are samples with my comments:
#1 one of the early photos of the night
#2 later in the night I switched to just one flash. Using the shot through umbrella raised all the way to the ceiling and me standing under it. Worked wonders.
#3 similar set up, might need a little better post editing.
#4 using the two light set up. Had a real hard time taking the group photos with this set up since the ends are very lit up and the middle is darker.
#5 Same set up, same problem. Parents love this photo though, but could use some more post op work I think
#6 Finally, the girls!
using just the shot through with me standing on a chair trying to get the 'glamor' pose by having them look up at me. Worked pretty good too. Another shot that the parents love, just wish I could have gotten them set up a little more balanced so my niece on the left wouldn't look like an add on.
Took pics of the parents too after the girls had left for their dance.
Was really a lot of fun and I learned a TON.
Will have to bug niece and friends in to more modeling so I can keep working on my skills.
I think I am going to get another shot through umbrella. They aren't much $$ and I think two of them would have worked wonders on the larger group shots.
