Rachel-Location Shoot by ric woods photography

Want to learn how to make images like this?
Our 2010 photography and lighting courses will be posted shortly.
We are running very small classes ,to avoid missing your place email maree@ricwoods.com and place your name on the list...


Here Rachel is holding a small led light in her hands, this produces this strange blue colour cast on her face. The trick is balancing the ambient (street and sky) light ,the low wattage LED light and the 3 strobes that are lighting her and the background...You can learn all this and more in our "off camera small strobe course".

I really liked this building, the faded signage and rust along with the design which reminded me of my time in France. A perfect setting for Rachel our model.

A very big thanks to Maree the studio manager.( she also is the make up artist) Xanthe lighting assistant/ model and of course William, lighting assistant and soon to be model.


Here you can see the lighting setup.Three off camera strobes, coloured gels on some and fired by radio triggers.

More photo shoots to come.......
