Taken using my cheap remote ebay triggers, and two flashes, one with a blue gel pointing to the background and another one with no gel pointing with a snoot to the gps device.

1/200 of a second - f/11 - ISO100

I’ve used a flash pointing from the left side with a white piece of paper on the right to make the bounce of the light. This could be my own bike, but no :( is just a plain toy…

For this one I’ve placed the beautiful model with a black background and a reflector on the right. The remote flash was placed on the left with a transparent piece of paper to make some diffuse light.

I’ve used the same configuration for this one, as I’ve used to the BMW one. Changed the background from yellow to black. I now wish I had removed the manual from the box :P…

Thank you Katy for the patience :).

  1. My comments this week:

    1. A great shot with nice outdoor/adventure style to it… for advertising I would definitely have the GPS on with some interesting data on the screen;

    2. A nice and well lit shot;

    3. Good use of light to reflect on the bra; congrats on the model too;

    4. An interesting shot but for a watch picture I think it is important to see all the details of the watch, so I would get rid of the box or put it in the back and concentrate on the watch; there is a shadow on the left of the frame and there is a distracting reflection on the bottom left, which is the photographer… :-) oh and it should be very very sharp too, you wanna feel the texture of it.

    good job joão!
