Need some advice for a model shoot

Postby Technik on Sun Sep 17, 2006 7:02 pm

I have been offered to do an outdoor binki model shoots next week and basically I was just wondering whether anyone could offer me some hints and advice - eg. what lens should I be using? what would be an ideal settings? etc

The shoot has been scheduled in the early morning, though I will bring some reflectives to diffuse the lights etc. Is there anything else that I need? I am a little bit nervous as I haven't done this before. :?

Any help is appreciated. :oops:

Reflector on side, sun on shoulders or back side, and fill flash your subject. Watch out for blown out reflections from the water, take careful metering there.

Bring a 70-200 if you have one, at least its splash proof :)
