these dudes are such a pain in the ass to shoot, goofy as fuck...what should be a quick shoot turns into a multi hour shoot
guys head cut off in first one, and chill with the hdr. Bands might like that look, but that doesn't mean it's a good look.
^^^^ i say ive been flexing my trigger finger for like 3 yyears now homeboy in the flannel shirt kinda looks like Paul McCartney
yeah, i mean, bands are the only shots i use it in, i dont like it all that much but if the people that are payin you want it, you cant say no throws me off too said, didnt even notice it on the camera but i think the dude bumped into the light and moved it off to the wall, i got about 20 of these promo shots, these were just the ones i figured i wanted some crits on
it took me a miniute to figure out what that was by his arm pit, i thought it as a rolled up magazine :x...thats what no sleep does to you, nice shot pretty stoked for this tour, should be pretty sick
ya i guess i should start trying with less shopped and focus on the original photo. and thnx i need the crits im tryin to get into it more and more
he's taking shots for the clients, not for this thread. if they like that look and they are paying, then everyones happy. part from you and shift, i like it. 2nd ones sweet
no offense if you need crits for something your making cream from then reevaluate yourself cause you should have the confidence in your self to know that everyphoto your taking for them IS going to a bannnnnger ya diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiig. to each his own though.
^lolz i tell you to stop posting the same pics and you get this little baby ass attitude like this and now the only reson you come back here is to start beef all the time? really dude, its BEYOND old..most of your posts consist of you starting shit, post pics or give crits or shut the fuck up heres paul mccartney again
Try getting the flashes completely out of the frame, also try shooting outdoors in the daytime. I've notice you limit yourself to either inside, or outside at night. It will add some colour and interest to your shots. They kind of all look the same a little bit in terms of pose, location, feel etc, I feel like every band's photos should be very different because every band is very different you get me? Keep with the HDR but lower the strength a bit so it's less over the top. Old as fuckin around pic for talking:
i feel you on the night time and indoor shit, lol..it was funny because we were finding a location AS the sun was setting and then it was dark i definetly wanna do shit in the daytime but i got this nocturnal ass life and it just fuckin sucks :/ you look at alot of my shots all the way up until the 1st pic i ever took with my camera and their mostly night shots im just now messing around with like "themed" promo shots, im still feeling around with promos..i wanna get the basics down first and get used to them before i focus on other shit, ya know? i got this idea for this pop punk band im supposed to shoot next month and its gonna be like..a mechanics shop and their all in mechanics outfits wrenching on some car..i got a photoshoot tomorrow with this band, im gonna try to think outside the box of what i usually do with promos, i always have a difficult time placing the band and my flashes correctly, i always get a nasty shadow on someones face and someones not lit properly
