Steamwhistle Brewery

This was a location shoot we did at the Steamwhistle brewery in downtown Toronto. it was rather fun. you can see in the top left corner where they are in relation to the sky... uh.. Rogers center.

Restaurant shoot

This one was fun. I had to go contact a restaurant to get them to let me shoot during a time when they were closed. I actually found a place called Gabriel's Place, which worked out wonderfully, and had this great interior!

Fashion Shoot

Well, this is all I have for now. This one was supposed to be a high fashion shoot, on location somewhere.
I had an immage for this one, but I had trouble getting a model (thanks to Jenn for filling in! :))and a location and time to get it done. so it ended up being a rush job. but I actually like how it turned out, and I got a few different shots that I really like. This one is one of the ones the teacher said she liked as well..

Location Architecture

well, it's that time again. The time when I have just done a crazy couple of weeks worth of projects and assignments, and I'm procrastinating on the next batch. So, I'll catch you guys up on what I've been doing. :)
This one was for my Location lighting class.

We had to find a building and photograph it with the glow still in the sky. Then we had to wait until it was full dark, and take another exposure for the windows, and the lighting inside, so we could end up with a dark silhouete of a building, with warm glowing lights inside, and a nice evening sky behind it.
I, of course, chose a hard building, because it had outdoor lighting. So I had to make another exposure for the building and make the exterior dark, and then blend all three images together into one. :P

Hands

This was the last assignment we had in Location lighting. We had to take a photo of hands showing some emotion using the self-contained flash units. I had to use the same flash units for the previous couples shoot as well. I liked how this one turned out.

Multi Flash

This is the one Jenn was waiting for:

So this was a Location Lighting assignment. we had to "paint with flash" or something to that effect. Jenn came out with me at least twice, and helped me by posing, and driving me around, and just helping me out until all hours of the morning. In order to do this shot we had to setup the camera open the shutter, and then run around and set off the flash many times.
Oh, BTW, I cut my hair... ;)

Sun Sync Flash

So this one can be self explanitory; however, it might not be imediately obvious. this was an exercise in manipulating the flash to match ambient light, or to make the ambient light dominant, or to use it as a fill light. if you look closely, you can see that some of the pictures are slightly over powered with the flash, and some others are just filled in with the flash.
