Off Camera Flash...

So I know it's been a while since I have posted anything, with my senior art show, I have been busy!

Here are some off camera flash photograph's I did for a class project. We had to use a flash system that was off camera, on a tripod, with or without a umbrella. I did a little of all the techniques. I also made a SNOOT(this is something that slides over your flash unit, and it directs the light in a stream; you can direct the light wherever you want it to go).

I want to give a HUGE THANKS to my buddy Dustin(who is also a photography student with me) for letting me take his pictures. He put up with me for two whole hours! Thanks so much...

Image Transfer Experiment...

So I am trying out a new method of image transferring. I created this image in photoshop, by layering many different textures that I created. I have printed the image on Epson Matte photo paper, and I am layering 3 coats of gel medium(painters use this to mix in with their acrylic paints). After the gel dries, I am going to put the print in hot water to lift the image off the paper. After I lift the print, I will place it on a painters canvas, and allow it to dry. Hopefully it will work. I will post the results soon, so stay tuned.
