Silhouette Photographs

Silhouette photographs can be very be very captivating and also can be very creative. A silhouette is basically your subject placed infront of something that is emitting a lot of light towards the subject and then to the camera. See example!



That is your most basic silhouette lighting set up. You can change the light source from a studio strobe to a bright window, the sun and so on. For your exposure, you basically want to expose for your background (light source)which means your background light needs to be significantly brighter then your subject because you want to your subject to be more or less black agaisnt your perfectly exposed background. Here is an example!

CCAA Womans National Basketball Championships

I'm at my school Niagara College in Welland Ontario where the 2011 CCAA Womans National Basketball Championship is being held. They are on their final day and it is my first day covering the event. I have been here shooting since one oclock this afternoon starting with Dawson College Blues vs Capilano University Blues. It was a pretty good game with lots of competition.







After that Niagara College was up agaisnt MSVU(Mount Saint Vincent University). It was quite the match, both teams were giving it their all but in the end MSVU came out on top.









Now the bronze medal game is about to start so here we go!

Another new shot.

This photograph was taken using two Elinchrome strobes with large soft boxes attached. They were placed more or less above camera pointing down towards the model, who also had a white reflector filling the shadows from the high light source.
