Avenger wheeled stand in the front

And Mathews wheeled one in the back.

If I were to do again, I would only consider Mathews. They roll better, wheels are inside and stand can stand up when folded.

Recent setup done for a small Burger chain.

The goal here was to create content for their digital menus board. But without the crazy food styling and only with the actual ingredients they use for their burgers, the thought was to get some tasty images that still looked authentic and not too far off from what you get in your hand. This was for some reason taken too literary so we had no picked out buns, not ingredients sliced or picked out for the shoot.. (My theory it was simply an oversight, somebody forgot to read the brief that was sent out) So I "built" the burgers with the actual ingredients from their own prep station.

Light is a rather simple setup to get fairly even illumination, with some specular highlights. Which is basically what you need for knock out in post.

To me the exposure looks too hot...

It's a mockup so not final design, it's edited for white background with overlay graphic which means it will be brighter than "normal". For this mockup it could probably be brought down a notch. Thanks!

Don't really have a setup to show but I have some images I'm trying to get some advice on when using OCF. When you set up your ambient how many stop under do you use also what metering mode and where do you meter at?
Thanks.

Took my heavy Mettle 600AD with the heavy C stand today just because i rarely ever use it. I was triggering it with a Godox X1-R and i had my EOS R for a camera. I used multiple lenses on this shoot but this particular shot was with the 135mm L

Here is the set up

The bright leaf distracts me from this amazingly beautiful woman!

Very nice capture

I could not agree more thank you for pointing that out, fixed

Worked with two different models at the same location. Model one (with light) wasn’t a fan of the ones she was in (very critical of herself) but model two (who was her first time modeling) killed it.

Lighting is the Flashpoint XPLOR 600 HSS (AD600) with remote head in CheetahStand Colt 45.

I need to get hard light reflectors and use them. Very nice affect here.

Thanks! She kept saying she looked “stoic” in her photos, as she’s used to seeing herself smiling in her selfies, but everything about this photo was perfect to me. Here’s another two that were caught while she was flipping her hair and she looks great in them too. Hopefully she’ll feel confident enough to shoot again.

Thank you! I also had the big softboxes and tried for that softlight, but so many times it wasn’t enough light and I had to look for shade or wait for the golden hour to shoot. This thing is a game changer, along with the CheetahStand Snub 38.
