strobist kit

Although it took me a few tries to understand how to use the kit, I really liked the effect it gave to even the most simple things. For this shot I put a single flash to the right of the shoes at an angle to get the shadow I wanted.

The strobist kit was so much fun to work with.
I ended up dragging my roommate and my friend down to the lighting studio with me and we had so much fun. It took a while but the concept I originally wanted came out in the first shot.
The second shot is my friend Kassandra. This also, I thought, turned out pretty good.

I used a single flash for this picture, set to the left of and slightly below the vulture.

I played around with a lot of different versions of this shot; I was never quite able to get the effect that I wanted, but I think this version comes the closest to what I was hoping for. I aimed the right-hand flash through a white umbrella to soften the glare on the underside of the stairs, but kept the left-hand flash unfiltered -- I liked the lines that the succession of brighter glares reflecting off the various rails created.

I know that these look like they are really bright, and I did these wrong, but I really like the light coming from behind, and it was my choice to do it this way. The two that are darker, are examples of when the strobist light didn't actually go off, but i really like them, in a weird artistic way. Its really interesting to see that the white dress didn't really work with the light, and the black colors really stood out! This was really fun to play with!

Strobist Kit "Bookworm"

For this shot I used a blue gel and put it inside of a book. I set the flash to about 1/16 and over exposed the picture so that the flash would have a creepy effect.
