Castle workshop Alden Biesen with Nadine

Today on the blog some of the resuts from the castle workshop in Alden Biesen with Nadine.
We shot most with the Elinchrom Ranger RX speed and the Maxilight due to the sun.
By using this combination you have a tremendous amout of power (1100Ws) and thanks to the maxilight it isn’t necessary to use this on full power so you get a lot of “pops” out of your battery. Of course you can also shoot this with HS (hi-sync) and use a higher shutterspeed to “kill” ambient light but during a workshop I mostly try to keep the techniques close to what most people own or can afford and in all honesty most people will work without hi-sync systems at the moment.

We also did one set with the Californian Sunbounce, it’s always stunning to see how much light that reflector bounces into the scene… and it’s nice and warm for the model 😀
