Will Sanders Test Shoot

The photos above are those of Will Sanders. I got to go help out one weekend for Will, who was doing a test shoot for himself. The model is wearing clothing by Ashish, who is good friends with Nadine and Will. Nadine rented the giant gnome, named Gordon for the shoot. Of course Will had all his camera's that day, both film and digital. I think he took like 15 rolls of film! We had to keep going inside that day because there were several random showers, then small windows of sunlight. I had a lot of fun looking at Gordon. We became quick friends. Too bad I will never see him again....



Here are some of the shots I took from the shoot:

Neighbor

Thank you to my wonderful neighbor Daniel for modeling for me so I could shoot this for James' class. I shot it with my Canon 30D, with my 17-40mm lens. We went to the big construction area outside our apartment complex, and I had him get in a giant concrete sewage connector. The ISO was 100, and my exposure was 1/125 s @ f/4. I might try and redo this shot to get the triangles that were formed by his glasses and the shadows out of the shot.

Too Many Laurens!!!

This was our first major project for our Digital Imaging class. We could either do a 360 panoramic, a stacked 180, a Frankenstein composite, or a too many twins composite. I chose to have twins. Thank you to Lauren for changing her outfit each time, and playing on the playground for me in the hot sun. She is wearing all my close, including those bunny slippers. Her favorite shot of her would have to be that center one, going down the slide. After many sleepless nights, this is what I have to show. I had trouble blending the mulch, but I think it looks a little better now than it was before. When I had to print this, it ended up being around five feet in length, and 15 inches tall. I had to print it twice, because the printer cut my paper the first time...so as you can see, this assignment caused me a lot of stress, but it is all good in the end.

Hand Bag Group Assignment

These were accomplished as a group consisting of myself, Jonathan Andrews, Jessica Benton, and Kathryn Lawson. It was an assignment for James' Lighting Workshop class. We were given around three hours to come up with ideas and go out and shoot them. I am pretty satisfied with what our group was able to get.


I wanted to try a weird angle, so I did and I like how it came out. We shot it with a Canon 30D with a 17mm lens. The exposure was 1/640 @ f/6.3 at an ISO of 100.


This was our low key scene. With a Canon 30D, we shot this at 1/200 @ f/16 with an ISO of 100. A 45mm lens was used.


This was our high key scene. Using a 39mm lens on a Canon 30D, the ISO was set at 100 and the exposure was 1/200 at f/4.



This was creative setup number 2. Shot with a Canon 30D 24mm lens, the ISO was 100. The exposure was 1/200 at f/9.
