Here’s a portrait of my buddy Sean that I took at the Seattle Flickr Meetup Garage Shoot at the University of Washington this past weekend. This was lit with one Nikon SB-600 in a silver reflective umbrella somewhere out of frame at camera right. I underexposed the photo quite a bit to make sure I really killed the background (gray concrete wall in the bottom floor of a parking garage) and then boosted the brightness later in post. No special extending of the frame in Photoshop this time. Composed as-is in camera with my new 85/1.8. I think it turned out well.

Fellow Flickrite John Cornicello snapped this awesome shot of me in action at last weekend’s Trash The Dress meetup. I didn’t do a really good job of remaining hidden.

On Saturday, a bunch of Seattle Flickrites journeyed up north to Sedro-Woolley to do a Trash The Dress shoot at Northern State Hospital. The weather was gorgeous. The location was wide open with no one there to bother us. And we had a ton of dresses for the models to wear.

Here are a few of my faves from the day:

Check out a few more shots in my Flickr photostream and the Seattle Flickr Meetup group.

chase and david write about seattle strobists

Chase Jarvis and David Hobby have both posted their full write-ups on last Sunday’s Seattle Flickr/Strobist Hangar shoot. Chase posted his video and some good background information on how this shoot came about. David talked about his great experience at his very first Seattle Flickr Meetup. And the Seattle Flickrites get some major world-wide exposure (again). Everyone is jealous of us. :)
