Just had another photo session with the artist Candid Coyote (same musician I did the album photo/design for). This one was needed for a full cover front page in the local paper. SO happy with how this turned out. We took this behind the coffee shop we met at to talk about the shoot... it absolutely represents him to a T. That's his truck he lives out of, and his life-long companion. So much fun.

This shoot was very much run and gun. We got set up with about half an hour of daylight left, and ended up losing the sun before we started... but we still had the sky. I set up my speed light camera left with a full cut of CTO, bare flash otherwise. Camera right was one of my PCB Einsteins firing into a 64" PLM Umbrella. I'm not really sure what my settings were without looking. I think I was at 1/60 sec, ISO 100, f.. 8? Used my 7d and 17-55mm f/2.8 IS, triggering the lights with my pocketwizards using the AC3 zone controller.

Total shoot was less than half an hour with set-up. Overall I'm thrilled, and very happy I was able to piece it together as quickly as I did. I've come a long way in the past year in that regard.





Thanks for looking... please give me your thoughts! I'm begging for criticisms here.
