Film Photography, Strobes, and Embracing Discomfort

- I decided that I was going to try using strobe lighting for the first time on a film camera set up. Now flash photography is something that I regularly use in my professional work as a wedding photographer but on personal work like this I don't really have much to show in my portfolio. And in the spirit of embracing discomfort and wanting to challenge myself I wanted to try using strobes with a film camera set up. Something that I have never done before, to see the types of results that I could get and ultimately get inspired through the learning experience of it all and hopefully get some decent images out of it.

Sick shots! What application did you use to create that mood board prior to production?!
Loveeeeee
Couldn’t have done it without you brother 🫡❤️
I have the RZ and this was the push I needed to try out strobes in the studio! You’re doing incredible, keep going!
Glad it inspired you a bit my friend! Glad you enjoyed the video
Thanks for sharing! Keep updating ❤
Thank you for watching!
Very interesting, I have just acquired a cheap strobe myself, and I want to give it a try and your video gives me courage to do so. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for watching my friend! Give it a shot and I am sure you will love it. You got this
@@ThomasBocage thanks!
Did your friend shoot everything for you?? It looks like this is his photoshoot to me
beautiful video that emits emotion, keep it up!
I own no digital cameras but the workflow you mentioned sounds like a great way to measure your settings. Would you recommend any cheap SLR 😂. I trust my light meter but in a studio setting you truly want everything on point
I am glad you enjoyed it my friend. And in this case I would honestly just set up a test shoot and take good notes of your settings with the camera you intend to use for the "real" shoot. Then just move from there!
motivation
Glad you enjoyed the video my friend
Do you have classes there is a particular style I want to learn in videography
Man, I’d love to try out strobes in the studio on film. As intimidating as it seems, it looks so fun. I’m out in Texas too. Might have to come up to Dallas and ask for some advice.
Certainly was intimating at first but once you see the results it is something you have to continue to get better at. And you should!
Any recommendations on flash sync you used?
The results are fire bruh. I wanna ask you tho does the the profoto work with mamiya 645 by just using the uni trigger ?
I appreciate the kind words my friend. And I’m honestly not sure! It is always worth testing out tho! Just make sure the camera does have any film and if everything fits properly the flash should fire!
Hey man! Love the video
what is the trigger he's using on the RZ. I have the westscotts as well. I also dont see him using a sync cord for the trigger as well. You have any more info on this?
Thanks!
Hey Rick! thank you for watching the video. I am glad you enjoyed. To my knowledge my buddy was using a Westcott Jfx2m wireless flash trigger!
