Well, they wanted another session but this time in London just 4 weeks before their UK wedding. So here it is, not quite the 12 hour epic session that happened State side, but 6 hours was still a good innings.
p.1 #14 · London Engagement Session - only 6 hours !!!
Thanks guys. Suppose the advantage of a longer session is that you can experiment loads.
Being winter and mostly shot indoors it forced me to use off camera flash. 6 months ago I used to bring Quadras, Rangers, tons of modifiers and carried it all myself, around London. Nuts right!?!
The biggest change for me in recent months is moving away from the big lights and just using a single speedlite, maybe 2. It speeds me up no end and helps my back, as you can imagine lugging all that gear around.
I bough a number of Canons new 600EX units, the ability to change the power wirelessly has made them worth their high cost. I almost always shoot on my own so having the ability to change power from camera is massive.
Also investing in a Cheetah stand has been great for moving my light easily in tight spacers.
I also use a lot of gels and grids on my speedlites to control the light. Honl make an excellent speedlite kit of gels and grids.
