East 17

Been working with East 17 recently on their comeback. We'll be doing some promo shoots over the next few months amongst other things.

Last night I went along to one of their gigs to capture some much needed live images for them to use as publicity.

On monday I had the pleasure of spending a busy 6 hours shooting a new all girl dance group for their new website. We had a lot to get done with several outfit changes, group and solo shots as well as hair and make-up to be done for the different looks.

My setup was fairly easy. I had a white backdrop with a long thin softbox lighting it at f/16. I used a large rectangular softbox on camera right at f/8 to light the subjects with a hairlight to the right of the backdrop. It was all triggered using my Pocket Wizards, which I'm still amazed at how flawlessly they seem to be working!

This all gave me f/8 at 1/125sec at iso200. I shot 95% of the day at 50mm, although there were a couple of shots where I opted for a wide angle lens to give a bit of distortion.
