Shots Review – Flash Dance

Jose Fernandez

So maybe we need a bigger venue, perhaps ANZ stadium, or Acer arena !? Ok that might be a slight exaggeration, but in all seriousness the Attic bar was packed to breaking point last Tuesday night. The best turnout so far.

The topic was “Flash Dance – Natural and Creative Flash Techniques”. This topic is one of my favourites and is obviously the favourite of many others as well. These days, most photography enthusiasts own a speedlite, but do they know how to get the most out of it? Do they know how to use it off camera in a creative and fun way?

Well hopefully most of the students have now gained a better understanding and have been inspired to try some of the techniques covered.

Scott McGale was our special guest on the night. Scott showed off some of his work while explaining the different light effects used to create that particular image. He also shared a little story about his experience shooting Naomi Campbell – and yes, apparently she is the Diva that everyone in-the-know says she is!

see you next time
Jose
