Wanted to go out and mess around with my skateboard and girlfriend. With the intention of solely using the Totally RAD action set for Photoshop CS3 to edit.

Really didnt want to setup any stands or anything, tried the minimalist approach. 50 1.4, 580ex with OC-E2 handheld with LumiQuest MidiBouncer, and 5d.

One of your best shoots IMO. I absolutely love this series. And your girl is mad cute, so that helps! 1,3 and 7 are my favorites.

I think the lighting is great. And the pictures are sharp, and well saturated with color. You also created great DOF and You picked the perfect time of the day to creat the perfect mood. Nice job like always :thumbup:

it was given to me by a friend to maybe kickstart me skating again. As you can see it didnt help. Snowboarding season is coming up, id rather get hurt doing that, than skateboarding.

Doesn't seem like too much PP. Which is a good thing. Sharpen, contrast, saturation, exposure up a stop?

Very nice series- she looks very relaxed in front of the camera. #2 is my favorite.

I love them! Your girlfriend is definitely cute. What time did you take them? Is it just natural lighting? I love natural lighting when it's right.

took them in the Vegas golden hour. 415-5pm, flash but diffused and high left of the cam.

i like natural light too, but i always prefer a reflector with natural light.

here you go Regina, Natural Light. This was a test shot to gauge light.

I noticed as well ;) But I figured he meant to just toss another in that was very similar.
