TriCoast Photography taught a awesome workshop!

I was able to attend a workshop put on by TriCoast Photography .I have to say I am amazed by the talent of these photographers. I have been to many conventions but nothing can compare to this workshop. It was hands on learning. The technique I learned is so awesome! I plan on working on it daily. It is shooting in a way that is so different then what I have learned so far. It is so exciting! It is no doubt what every senior would love! I can't wait to use it on bridals as well. The coolest thing about it is you can do it at the brightest time of the day. No more waiting until afternoon when the time is right. No more hiding from he sun. If you are not sure what makes this different take notice of a few things. Notice the clouds and the color of the sky. At the brightest time of the day you could not take a picture with the sky in it without it turning white(blown out). Also, how often can you take a imagine with the background completely blurred out at the brightest time of the day.It would also blow the image out. I can't explain it all because it would take to long. Another thing I love is how you can use flash with this and make the skin look so awesome. Notice how the eyes have a catch light in them. A great thing is with this is certain shadows give a dimensional look to the image. I never thought I could love flash photography so much!!! At the workshop we used our own cameras. The challenge at home is working with one of your flashes on a stand and not having someone to hold it where you need it. I will have to get a light stand with a tilt head.
TriCoast is so talented. I was totally blown away the whole time! They do weddings and travel all over the world. They work together as a team. What impressed me the most was how down to earth they were. The pictures of the models are the ones I took at the workshop. I did not focus on composition so ignore that. I was just focusing on learning the technique. When I got home today I graped Christian and ran outside to try it on him. It took about 15 mins to get a few because I need a stand with a tilt but I got a few. I sure wish I could take Brad to all my sessions to hold the light. LOL . Anyway, I really feel this is going be the best thing I could of even done for my photography. Check out their site http://www.tricoastphoto.com/
