Just got back from New York Fashion Week

here are soem pics of other backstage photographers and their modified
light shaping tools

must say the new yorkers werent as innovative as the italians opting for standard softboxes but there were a few innovations

off camera flash








australian phog Antonello Trio with his Suacepan made ring flash it really is made from a saucepan wins the innovation prize


this is just silly


notice the paddle pop sticks


hex umbrella softbox


i used a modified fong spehere and a modified ProFoto beauty dish with grid

interesting to see how other togs worked it backstage

interesting to see the mods backstage. the softboxes looked pretty cumbersome but cool

Thanks for posting this, Wendell. Always looking forward to your 'behind the scenes stuff'.

Alex

cool stuff

Notice how practical the Aussie is with his Sausepan ... Take a few photos ... get hungry ... throw some Bacon & eggs inthe Sauspan ... quick wipe and cool down, reconnect the flash and back into the photos

Makes sense to me

Surprised he didn't use a mini Webber then. He can bring out the tray, hold a bbq then pop it back on.

I agree, always fascinating to see these behind-the-scenes shots Wendell. As for your images, they are always of the most exacting standard.

I might give the saucepan idea a go, or maybe I could use my wife's new wok?

So if you still shot film, you could say that you going to 'Wok n Roll'

This was a feeble attempt at humour, almost as bad as my frequent and terrible efforts!

When can we expect part 2

Ozimax I love the weather up here in Coffs, pity I have to head home to cold old Melb tomorrow
