    Studio Promo Shots

    I just ordered about a grand worth of studio lighting gear so that I can do my own seamless promo shots and not have to deal with photographers copywrite issues and stupid high fees.

    I figure most of us could use a break on photos.
    so, if you are interested. I will spend all day with you taking pictures, editing, etc. They will be seemless white backgrounds like this . We can shoot every costume you have, do headshots, wide angle (fisheye) shots, full body shots, try some arty shots, and I might even be able to shoot stilt costumes (it will take some creative rigging in my loft). I will do some minor photoshop editing on 5 images and you will take ALL of the origional shots home (there might be as many as a thousand).
    The images will be high enough resolution to print small posters (probably not banners, my camera is a D-70, only 6 megapixels).
    You won't have to wory about copyright crap, like paying diferent amounts for diferent uses, or per image or per year. The images will be yours.
    I'm a variety performer too, so I might have a better understanding of what you are after than some photographers.
    I live in Lancaster PA. If you need, I will probably be able give you a futon to crash on for a night.

    These are pics I took of my girlfreind using work lights from home depo. using lights that suck . I will post examples of what I get using real studio flashes once I have a chance to practice.

    I'm not a pro photographer, but I think I'm pretty good anyway.
    I'm thinking I'll charge $100 for the service until I get more practice and more confidence with the gear. If you're interested, let me know so we can start talking about it.

    Sam Johnson is the model. Jonathan Burns did the graphic design. I took the picture.

          good place to buy lights from if your a novice



          flash lights with modeling lamps are the best way to go. If you use a flash without modeling lamps you won't be able to see where the shadows will be until you take the pic.
          If you use halogen lights (not flash) that always stay on they are a lot cheaper, but the white balance will be very yellow and hard to correct, and your subject will get very warm.


          and thanks for the compliment.
