Freedom Rider Shoot

So, I got talking to a mate at church about his fashion label "Freedom Rider".
Long story short we ended up planning a shoot.

I have selected my three favorite shots, and here they are!

This is my favorite shot of the day.

Model: Sarah Sligo
Clothing Label: Freedom Rider
Hair and Make up: Tegan Henderson

Trying to create a bit of desperation between the models..

Meanwhile, check out that sweet top!

The bricks I got from a friend's house.. she has plenty after losing a few chimneys in the Feb quake here in Christchurch.

They made for great props, and fantastic weights for keeping my lights from falling over!

Speaking of lights, here's a shot of my rig on the day.

Well, i've got to get this house ready for an inspection tomorrow..

So I best be off.

Hope you like the images!

Enjoy,
Jonny.

Photos and smiles

Hello to anyone reading this blog.

Due to a request from a near and dear artist friend of mine Huei Yin,
I will now be uploading and explaining photos to this site as a sort of portfolio thing.

My hope is to display some cool photos of things as people have never seen them before..
but failing that, hopefully just some cool photos that will make you smile :)

So we'll start with todays activities;

A few days ago I discovered my EF 18-55mm IS III which came with my camera had a big stupid dust spot in it!
How very annoyed I was when I found out Canon would not cover this!
So I bought a Sigma 18-50 EX DC and thought screw it, lets turn my old canon 18-55mm into a macro lens.

Here are the results.

As you can see I need a lot more practice with this gadget.
I was also shooting at 1600 ISO which with a 1000D is not a good idea (but what are you gonna do right?)





Enjoy,
Jonny.
