"Florida Beauty"

"Florida Beauty"

Having taken so many photographs of LaDawn last week in Florida, I decided to make her the cover girl again today. This image was made with the technique I discuss in today's Technique Tuesday section. Super easy lighting (a $25 flash), great location, good looking model - presto, a very nice portrait. Camera specs; Canon 5D mark II fitted wit 24-105mm IS lens at 98mm, F 4.0 @ 1/6 second, ISO 400. Enjoy! -David

  1. Since I'm a newbie to your site my question is also a newbie question.
    With your $25 flash, how did you get to the exposure time and ISO? Did you measure it, use the camera's meter, or just your experience?

  2. Dave,

    I know its not on this paticular post, but i was curious. How exactly do you set up your room light for bigger receptions? I have a bigger reception coming up and I'm really curious about using the room light.

  3. To Mike V - not to horn in but in case Mr. Ziser does not see your post there is a good tutorial from his 08/19/08 post entitled "Dancing with the Light." "The Case for the Room Light" from 12/19/08 may also be of value. Regards and good luck.
