080/365- On The Job [For August 17th, 2010]

Rick was wrapping up a senior portrait session with Jordan (also pictured), but needed some assistance. Shooting under the bright sunlight creates a few problems, one of which being harsh, unwanted shadows on your subject's face. That's where a reflector comes in... However, that in itself is another issue if you're shooting by yourself - there's nobody to hold the reflector in place! Unless you set up stands and sorts, but that potentially gets crazy. Anyway, that's where I came in. ;)

This is Rick going through the photos with Jordan afterwards. BTW, the DIY reflector, although not perfect, did enough to get the job done.

Note to self: Buy a reflector... ? And/or learn how to flick smaller amounts of light at my subjects.
