Noa goes to School
Steenokkerzeel, BELGIUM
Tomorrow is my youngest daughter Noa's last day at daycare. On Monday she goes to school. For 7 years we always had at least one kid with the fantastic people at "Martijntje".
I made this picture and added some words to thank the girls who took care of Noa (and the other two) so well.
Noa didn't feel much like posing today, she gave me basically 2 minutes to setup and 90 seconds to shoot ;-)
So I just set my aperture and shutter speed to get a dramatic sky. I grabbed the Hensel Porty Lithium 12 battery powered flash generator from the booth of the car and fitted the head with a gridded beautydish. The Hensel radio trigger that allows you to adjust power from the transmitter let me quickly set the power right. I keep being amazed by how fast you can work with such a powerful light.
Noa didn't want to stand in the spot I had in mind, so I left her were she stood, moved the light stand and shot her there.
