We held a photo shoot at the SC State House grounds yesterday for Taylor and a few of her friends from Cardinal Newman School (CN). It was hot afternoon, but we found a shady spot to set up.
I used a pair of SB-800 strobes on stands left and right with shoot through umbrellas. Shooting groups this large outdoors requires nearly full power from strobes this small. Not a problem, but the recycle time is around 7 seconds so you have to adjust the pace of your shooting. Other than that, this setup is pretty much bullet proof. Nothing fancy, just nice soft even light.
In addition to the groups, we did individual and buddy shots. This was a lot of fun, but next year maybe we’ll wait until October, just too hot in August around here.
