KyleAndrew Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 I started a new recurring series on my website this week, where I show up at someone’s home with my A7R II and some lenses, no fancy lighting equipment, and just treat it as a creative exercise in working with what I have on hand. I had so much fun with Heidi as my first subject, and I’m hoping to do one of these every week. She had such a beautiful home, and her beautiful cat Molly even made an appearance in the photos. Honestly it turned out to be a fantastic way to force yourself to be creative without the usual creature comfort of lighting gear.

djschwartz13 Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Interesting choice with the 16-35. I never liked that lense with my wedding work. I had version 2. Very cool idea and images. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleAndrew Posted January 27, 2016 Author Share Posted January 27, 2016 It's actually not the greatest lens for shooting people but I was in such tight quarters and I deemed the 28mm 2.0 to be insufficient for the task Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
djschwartz13 Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 I understand that dilemma Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleAndrew Posted January 27, 2016 Author Share Posted January 27, 2016 The good news is the decision was easier to make with this series. It's actually been fun to step out of the studio comfort zone and be forced to work with what I can find on location. No pre-planning is a difficult challenge. I did one last evening in the tiniest apartment ever, very tricky indeed Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
djschwartz13 Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 I always love pushing myself. I pretty much do a home invasion with every wedding I photograph. I step into some pretty bad rooms with awful lighting. Have you considered using a small LED off camera to just throw a slight amount of light onto the subject?

KyleAndrew Posted January 27, 2016 Author Share Posted January 27, 2016 I thought about it, but I decided to stick with whatever light I find in the location as an excuse to really push the A7R II Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
