How I Shot This - Pixapro CITI 300 Pro

November 10, 2020 in How To, How I Shot This, Product Photography

Hello and welcome back to The Craft.

I had plans to write and produce portrait tutorials this year… well we all know how 2020 has been so far so I will not go into it.

For this post I thought I would share something a little different. In this one we will be taking a look at how I shot and lit a product photo of a Pixapro CITI 300 Pro.

I was sent this light by Pixapro ready for some upcoming video content I am working on for them but figured why not shoot a photo of it during my usual meter and flash duration testing.

A Basic Kit - For Available Light Portrait Photography

October 09, 2020 in Gear, Getting Started, How To

When starting in portrait photography it is all too easy to get sucked in to studio or off camera flash world when really what we need to do is to start simple with natural / available light.

For this we don’t need a ton of kit.

If you have a camera & lens you can get to work and if you want to add a few tools to offer a lot of control you can do so very affordably.

Portraits Of Rhianna - A Break Down.

This shoot is from back in 2017. Myself and Rhianna spent some time in the studio creating new images.

Going forward on these posts I will try to provide more BTS/Setup frames so you can see what is happening on set and later videos. I just need to get some other content on to YouTube first.

Let’s look at the first set.
