Helping Hand

This is R. He's a student in Salt Lake who came along with me on a shoot in West Jordan, today. It's always nice to have a hand.

Nikon D800, 50mm f/1.4 lens, f/4, 1/100s, ISO 800.

R. was helping setup for this one. The idea was to photograph the manager of this shop in his place. That's why I used the high ISO and slow shutter speed. Those let the light from the shop put some glow on the background while my flash in a softbox cast a nice directional light on R.

I love this kind of thing. It's really fun to photograph people in their places. I'm glad R. was there to help me get things adjusted for when we brought the manager in for his glamour shot.
