colored pencils

Some still life's of colored pencils.

Duke Raleigh

Some shots for Women's Edge Magazine at Duke Raleigh. Used AB 800/400 Outside for the group shot. Went with ambient light and a reflector inside for the people shots. We could of lit everything but didn't have the time.

Pic's at Peace

The main goal was photo's of the building with banners and people on the balcony, it was pouring rain so I shot from inside the an event tent. I was not pleased with the shots so went back the next night and shot. I'll be going back once we get a plan and all the lights in the building on ......... For the event photography SB-800 TTL, PW on an AB 800 bounced off roof of tent for fill, shot all manual, the f stop varied from f/5.6 to f/16 depending on where you were.

Duke

Some set up shots from Duke, lots of colored gels in the lab.

Duke 2

Spent afew days at Duke, the getting up at 5:30 AM was a killer and went back for some night shots. I'd forgotten what a beautiful campus Duke is, you'd never know you were in the middle of NC., great gothic architecture. I felt really old with all the students around, my birthday was last week, 42 years old...... Got some great shots and a big thanks to Jennifer Sanford photo assistant extraordinaire.

World Beer Festival

World Beer Festival in Durham NC, with 18,000 of my closest friends for NC Signature Magazine. I arrived afew hours early and did some set up shots before the crowd arrived. Tronix 1200 and Profoto 600 pack, not really enough output on the 600 pack to balance the light next time I'll use the 1200 pack. I had no idea this festival was so big, next time I'm bringing a designated driver. I met people that have been coming to the festival for 11 years and most people were from out of state.

Phones are back

110 shots, clipped out and retouched in 3 days. I'm spending way to much time sitting in front of the computer.
