here at the Soho Photographer. Art documentation. For submissions, archiving, what have you.

4 x 5 macro

The paper clips came out alright, but the earrings didn't. They were rather hard to do, but alas... I didn't get it. Not all of them are in focus. Paper clips are 1:1 and the earrings are 2.5:1.

While here:

I've done a little bit of shooting of my own. Here's a few of the lastest:

Internship thus far....

For the most part, I've just been an assistant. But I've seen a lot of what running a photography business is all about - and I don't wanna have my own. Lol heck no!! Soooooo much work and you are at the mercy of the public (in this case, the art world). I have seen some amazing artwork and sculpture (some costing in the hundreds of thousands of dollars). And, I've helped photograph a few pieces (actually, we did 4x5 macro on some interesting jewelry - Scheimpflug ftw...).

Ya know, people say film is pretty much dead, especially large format. But that's not entirely the case. Mr. Dee has had plenty of artists request 4x5 and even 8x10 transparencies for their work.... so that's pretty cool. Recently, he's given me projects, "here's a camera, lights and a ____, you have 2 hours." Yesterday, I worked with only 4x5 transparencies doing some macro (and beyond) stuff. Was quite fun. I believe they came out alright, not sure yet though. Pictures to come shortly.

And Before I leave...

I'd like to make this last post. It's my portfolio for my macro class. Woot!

Thank you Tavane, Laurie, and Cindy!

More for Class

All of these are, again, for my macro class. I normally haven't been able to sign up for the 5d kit so I jumped at the chance to work with it. I used a ring flash for all of them, but a hotlight for the main light. Everything is at 1:1.
