SunSpot

I just finished editing a few pictures for the band SunSpot. A really great band from the Madison Wisconsin area! You should check them out here!

Anyway, a really fun band to work with and we capture a lot of really cool shots. We were able to sneak into a UW building (well not really sneak because no one even stopped us or asked why we had a full setup of camera gear). From there we found a lab like location and were able to move a few tables and engine blocks around to create a nice little scene where we did a couple of these pictures.

This first one was the original idea that we were going for. Kind of a lab like setting with some beakers and science geek stuff. We had large number of different shots but I really like this one the best. Light with a single shoot through umbrella camera slightly left. Had two rim lights going on as well to help pop them out of the darkness. Sweet!

This next one was completely impromptu but I think may be our best shot of the whole shoot! We found a cool little backdrop and I just placed two lights slightly to the left and right.. and told them to kick and stick their feet out. I think it works well to help frame the image! Good job guys!

This last one.. well you have to have a jumping picture! The man in the middle (Mike) his expression was priceless and is why I chose this particular one. You can see a little blur on some of the legs because the shutter speed was a lower and not at the full 1/250^th. To speed lights, one on either side. Real simple lighting setup.. great expressions.

That shoot was a great success..and I have some great images to add to the portfolio. :)
