Zack Arias Flash Photography – 5 Min Portrait

Written by

in

froknowsphoto.com I got to spend the day with Zack Arias when he held his OneLight workshop at my studio/apartment. What an amazing teacher, photographer and person. This guy is all about teaching, doing better and passing on the knowledge. After a long 17 hour day I asked Zack if he would be able to do a 5 min portrait of me to post on the site for all of you guys to see. We started shooting right around 2 AM and Zack was able to hammer out some AMAZING portraits. I think you will be able to pick up some lighting nuggets from Zack during this video. You will see him go from one or two speedlights to using three. Zack is a master with speedlights, it was truly an honor to get to pose for a portrait with him. Please Subscribe www.youtube.com

Time-lapse video covering my traveling and hiking around Iceland. Remember to watch in 720p quality! Unfortunately I have started to shoot timelapses only in the end of my stay and that is why there is not a lot of great locations I visited before. Shot with: Nikon D300 Edited: Adobe Lightroom iMovie LRtimelapse (lrtimelapse.com) Music: Jónsi – Around Us (jonsi.com) Sigur Rós – Staralfur (sigur-ros.co.uk) Created by: David Varga Photos from my travels: dvarga.net Want to come to ICELAND?

    at 160th of a sec I have to go as far as f32 just to black out the background. at f8 some light would still be visible…did he use a filter of some sort?

    You have a nice house. In the un-creepiest way anyone know where this guy lives? Not anything specific, just like general area. Zack keeps saying how great the things in his neighborhood are for shooting.

    Increase the F stop to F/16 or F/22 with ISO100. Increase the flash syn to 1/320.

    Lucky you!I i am jealous of Icelanders..
    Romanians are filthy gypsies, beggars,thieves or criminals.
    There are almost 10000000 Romanians living in France,Sweden,Norway,Germany..
    But i guess that there are not more than 100 Romanians in ICELAND..
    Dont allow Romanians scum to enter Iceland..your country is so ..isolated!Romanians destroy any place they go to.
    Romanians are the scum of Earth,useless scum.
    Nobody likes them.
    Romanians are retarded.Romania is the shitty place that brought you INNA…
