Covering Corporate Event

by kenki on Sep.01, 2009, under Photography

2 weeks ago I attended a corporate meeting where someone would give a presentation, whether you like it or not. The content was great so don’t get me wrong. I brought my camera gear that day so I decided to take a few pics of the enthusiastic speaker. But the ambience was pretty dark and the place has a low ceiling. Mounting my Sony F58 flash on my camera and shoot direct would be too harsh on my subject. Bounce the flash up on low ceiling won’t spread the light evenly. He was standing right in between 2 pillars so I clipped one flash with Justin clamp on each side, facing the speaker and started shooting. Kinda enjoying myself. Now call me the self-appointed unofficial corporate event photographer, in strobist style!

My good friend, Adrian who is also a keen photographer, took this to try out my setup.

No fancy lighting but i like the mini spotlight. The 2 gentlemen in this picture are Johnny and George. Both are my good friends too.
