Yeah I hear you Scott, I'm definitely a photographer not a musician ;-) I'll try to do better in future.

N.

that is an awesome video what kind of triggers were you using? and any advice for an aspiring fashion photographer

I didn't pay much attention to the music though. I really paid my attention to the way that you made the whole thing looking so fun.

Very nice work Nick, would you be interested in doing any second-look type work for dpreview?

Awesome shots, may I ask what light stand you used to get the strobe from above? thanks!

Triggers were microsync, they are very small, perfect for the street and the boom pole is a carbon microphone boom made by Gitzo, they make two, I use the longer one.

Andrew, I'm not really a fashion photographer, I don't know a thing about the clothes or designers but I do love working with models in the street and thinking on my feet. You need to experiment a lot and find something you like and make it your own. Be bold and lead rather than copy.....easier said than done I know.

I'd looked through your photos on your website and flickr and had been wondering how you got those awesome patches of light that make the figure stand out so much and thankfully now i know! Thanks for sharing.

Did you set the strength of the flashes to a stop over the ambient and then set the camera exposure a stop under ambient or something? I'm really wondering about your workflow for this given that the flashes were at constantly changing distances from the subjects. Thanks.
