Its been over half a year since I did anything with the jwi flickr group, but this particular meetup was definitely up my alley. Photographer Brian Rosen held an informal class on the subject of glamor photography. Where he went through punctuality, best practices and also lighting equipment and modifiers. The meetup took place at hope gardens on hope road A very nice environment for portraits and glamor photography if you ask me.
After the theory and info session was over the members present were allowed to take turns shooting the model present. Lights and triggers were provided by Brian R, and everyone had their own Camera’s.
I was mainly there for the info, and to hear someone as experienced and Rosen and Franz speak, It was worth the time and effort to go. I didn’t do any strobist work that day though, I sought out good ambient light and shot it when i could. Hope you like the image I posted from the meetup.
p.s The jwi flickr group is a pretty interesting group If your just starting out in photography you may be able to learn a thing or two from going out on their monthly outings and meet a few contacts in the field which you may be able to work closely with and learn as a result.
