Cullera, Valencia, SPAIN

 

I was asked to do a presentation at the AFPV congress in Spain about photography 2.0

I was told in advance that this congress is always a lot of fun but I wasn't prepared for so much fun, inspiration and friendship.

 

I didn't plan to talk about technique or lighting but lots of people expressed their interest in my lighting style on location. So I decided to do an improvised off-camera flash demo in and around the hotel on the last day. Carol is a talented Spanish photographer and also proved to be an excellent model. Not easy when you have 50+ people looking at you.

 

I didn't have any speedlights or triggers with me, so I borrowed a battery powered studio light. We shot everything with just the one light and a standard reflector.

 

The main light is natural light and we used the studio light to get some light in the background.
