    Default My first attempt at studio photography...

    And I use the term 'studio' loosely. My buddy called me up super last minute to ask if I could help him get some lights for a photo session at his print shop. It didn't take long for me to realize that they pretty much had no clue what they were going to do. So I pooled some resources together, got a small Lowell light kit, and a camera (I think it was a Nikon D40x... But I actually have no idea). I just lit it like I'd light a video interview, and shot with no flash (mainly because I dont know how to shoot with flashes, haha)... Anyway, I'm sure there's mad photo heads on here that will love ripping these apart, so have at it!

    Oh yeah, and it was for my buddy's clothing company thing he's starting...


    They found a mostly used/wrinkled seamless backdrop in the trash, and took it.


    I think I read somewhere that selective color is cheesy. Oh well, haha.






    I messed with some of the brushes in Photoshop to make for some some-what interesting borders.


    I found the filter in Photoshop that makes for super easy vignettes. Is that still cool in photography? Shit I probably missed the boat on that.


    Mad wrinkles yo.


    Some detail shots.


    The light was missing the left side of his face in this one.



    This is all just photoshop stuff I did on my own. Completely unrelated to their company.

    Really? Other than the selective color one, and the vignettes, the only photoshop work done was in the levels function. These pics dont even remotely look overly photosopped... I'm confused


    PS - I wish i knew how to do that over photoshopped shit, it looks sweet.

    Your subjects are underexposed.
    More light on them, less on the background.

    For your first attempt ever, those are pretty good. Stop being so good at everything technology related.






    I'm bored and can't sleep so I fooled around with one photo.
