Here’s a fresh batch of photos from Purple Sneakers. There’s the Purple Sneakers/Vice Party on the 15th April featuring The Exploders performing and there’s the regular party photos from the 21st April.
There’ll be none of these shenanigans for me again this weekend, even the wicked need an occasional rest.
your party photos continue to impress me Dan. the lighting looks so natural.
awesome work.
🙂
Ya know, I’m a HUGE fan of your party photos! You totally capture the moment!
But just a technical question. How do you set up your flash for these kinds of photos? I’ve been mucking around with my flash for a month, and nothing comes out right. Is it direct flash?
Awesome shots Dan, looks like some wicked partying!
Olivia, the lighting is always a mix of things. In the shots above some have no flash, some have the flash pointed at the subjuct and some have the flash bounced off a wall or ceiling.
Often the most natural and well lit result is gained by bouncing the flash. I have a flash (Canon 420ex) that allows you to move around the direction it points. So if you’re in a room with a relatively low ceiling try pointing the flash directly up to the roof. The light will bounce off the roof and look more natural and flattering on the subject.
The one with the stockings is fabulous! Perfect – even the little collection of plastic beer glasses out of focus in the background. I like it! 🙂
Saw the 8th one in Brag today. woo hoo!
nice
I like the photos very much.
