Jamel Shabazz has been documenting the ‘Urban Life’ for over 30 years.
Born and raised in Brooklyn, NY he picked up his first camera at the
age of 15 and proceeded to record the world around him.
Jamel has drawn inspiration from the great James Van Der Zee, Gordon Parks, Robert Capa, Chester, Higgins and Eli Reed.
The author of 3 monographs, ‘Back in the Days’, ‘The Last Sunday in June’ and ‘A Time Before Crack, Jamel is presently working on his fourth book, entitled ‘The 90’s'. (via jamelshabazz.com )
Jamel Shabazz has been cruising the city for over 30 years. He uses his camera to capture the love and the smiles.
“He did with pictures what rappers did with words,” said Bill Adler, a
hip-hop historian and photography aficionado. “He made these folks
visible the way rap made them audible. He took everyday people and
turned them into icons. Nobody told him to do this. He just went out and
struck gold.”

John Gollings discusses and demonstrates how he achieved the dramatic 3D
stereoscopic images of cityscapes and open cut mines that then formed
part of Now And When, the Australian component of the 2010 Venice
Architecture Biennale, and Object's blockbuster winter 2011 exhibition.
Eye For Architecture takes us on a unique journey
into the world of cutting edge architecture in Australia and the Asian
region through the personal lens of architectural photographer John
Gollings.
Known as the unofficial curator of Australian architecture, a
Gollings photo can turn an ordinary building into art, helping it get
published or win an award.
We follow Gollings on a journey from the
modern city of Melbourne to the rapidly changing Asian region – from
it’s ancient cities like Angkor in Cambodia and Hampi in India to the
modern face of today’s China. He provides us with an inside view of his
personal influences and what it takes to create memorable images.

Street photography. How hard can it be? All you do is stroll up to a
random stranger on the street and snap a photo right? Nuh- uh. Street
photography takes people skills, confidence, quick thinking skills and
the ability to capture a photo before that subject passes you by.
Today, we're taking three different talents who have never taken
street-style photos to allow them to experience art in a whole new
fashion.
Three photographers, with three different styles,
jumping out of their comfort zones. Even though they don't know what
they're getting themselves into today, these three groups of
photographers are up to the challenge.

Creating Great Landscape Photographs using a light meter

Many of us are passionate about landscape photography, but many have
difficulty capturing an image that successfully conveys the beauty and
feeling of a place. We all take these images because there is something
about what we are seeing that inspires us and causes an emotional
response.
What makes for a great landscape photograph and what distinguishes it
from a snapshot? What are the composition issues that can make or break a
shot? Why are you taking the picture in the first place?
Light, geography, the time of day, and the capabilities of your camera
will all contribute to a great landscape photograph. Knowing the
limitations and learning your tools will help end the frustration of
missing a great shot or ending up with a poorly exposed image beyond
rescue. One of the tools we’ll use is a Sekonic L-758DR handheld light
meter. This meter offers a combination of incident and spot-metering
capabilities to give us all the information we need to get the best
exposure possible. It can also provide the exact exposure information
needed for the best results when compositing high dynamic range (HDR)
images.
Join us as we explore many of the aspects that can make for a great
landscape photograph. Learn to create an image that tells a story,
invites you to linger and explore, and engages all of your senses as you
are drawn into the place—that’s what makes for a great landscape
photograph.

I was photographed by Todd Kustman
back in 2008 for my senior photographs and I remember that I was not
fully prepared for all the things I could potentially do during my
photo-shoot. Todd builds a strong relationship with each of his clients
before he photographs them, in this way he not only captures their
appearance but their personality as well. I'm proud to call him a friend
and I was more than happy donating my time in editing in producing for

The Singapore-born and Tokyo-based Leslie Kee has a thick resume,
photographing such uber-celebs as Ayumi Hamasaki, Zhang Ziyi, Kumi Koda, Choi
Ho Jin and Beyonce among countless others for magazines, books, posters and commercials.
Kee was born in Singapore to a prostitute mother who died
when he was 13, leaving him to be raised by his grandmother and aunt. Japanese entertainment,
especially music idols such as Seiko Matsuda, appealed to Kee and
he came to Tokyo as a student to learn Japanese and photography, working two,
sometimes three part-time jobs at a time to survive.
“Those were the hardest years of my life. I came from a home
in Singapore that subsisted on the roots of sprouts that were cut off to be
prepared for the elite class. I was the first in my family to attend college.
The hardest part was always wondering if I would be approved for a visa or not,”
says Kee.
I am a photographer based in Austin, Texas.

On the occasion of the 50th Series had something special today after asking me a lot, shoot a flour. The idea is not new and is also not mine, but the image results are quite impressive and I must say this gigantic mess was worth it.
A few more details about the colors I wanted to make as compatible as possible for dei models and have used only natural colors: spinach powder, beetroot powder and ultramarine chalk ( http://www.colores-nativi.de/tag/ultramarin/Ultramarinblau-Pigment-1kg.html ) Except for the ultramarine the flour, however, was only very weakly stained. Nevertheless, I would do it again so as long as the flour has only a color cast, it is easily possible to adjust the image processing, the desired color.
The flash system again came the new X-System of multiple flash is used, which due to its short flash duration to freeze the flour is perfect clouds in the air.

By Jay P. Morgan.
I have been working on a pilot pitch reel for a
company here in Los Angeles. It's about a man who has a near death
experience and ends up in a morgue.
I used a Kessler crane with an ikan
monitor to get some of the more dramatic shots of the piece. There was a
very deliberate reason that we used the crane.
We did not use it
because we had it or it seems cool (Which it is by the way). Cool or not
it's not a good enough reason to use one. We used it because in an
interesting way we were able to redirect the viewer to the things that
we thought were the most important in the shot. We used it to create
dramatic effect and show how lost in a large world our man was.
We used
it to create surprise. When used correctly cranes are a very powerful
tool. Cranes use to be too expensive for most people but that is no
longer the case. They are reasonable to rent and not too expensive to
buy. In this video you will gain a few tips on how to use a crane.

Julia is an actress/model and lives in Brooklyn, NY. She's pretty wild
and has a lot of energy. If she were so inclined, she would swim to the
bottom of a reef and spear dinner for you.
One more time, the true is you really do not need an expensive camera to get amazing pictures. Drewshoots uses sometimes an old Nikon D40 and a D7000 ( a great camera ) with Nikon 35mm 1.8G.
The final images:
Camera: Nikon D40 | Exposure:1/400 | Aperture: f/6.3 | Focal Length: 35 mm | ISO Speed: 200
Camera: Nikon D7000 | Exposure:1/250 | Aperture: f/10.0 | Focal Length: 35 mm | ISO Speed: 100

Met up with Mikey from lightenupandshoot, and brought Julia along for a
sweltering shoot under the hot Fort Lauderdale sun. It was really
freaking hot.

Burning Man is a week-long annual event held in the Black Rock Desert in northern Nevada, in the United States. The event starts on the Monday before, and ends on the day of, the American Labor Day holiday (August 29 to September 5, 2011). It takes its name from the ritual burning of a large wooden effigy on Saturday evening. The event is described by many participants as an experiment in community, radical self-expression, and radical self-reliance ( via wikipedia).

The newest addition to the Backpacker Studio, a
neutral density "ND" filter. ND filters reduce the amount of light
entering the camera's sensor (like putting on a pair of sunglasses for
your camera). Why would you want to do this? Imagine if you could
shoot with an aperture of 1.8 in full sun or have a long shutter speed
of 30 seconds in the middle of the day. The Genus ND affects the
exposure from 2 -8 stops of light without changing color.

Bertrand and I were asked to come and film what was happening behind the
scene of a photoshoot for an australian BMX publication.
So, Clinton Tudor, the photographer was kind enough to give us an
interview that we used as a backbone to drive the whole narrative
through the three locations we shot in.
We were fortunate enough to have rider Liam Marshall and his mates as they were pulling some nice tricks right under our lenses.
On a more technical side, it was shot with a Lumix GH2 with some Pentax
lenses and the Canon 550D with a 10-20 zoom lens and and a 50mm prime.

Joel was first introduced to photography his freshman year in high school and from the very beginning it was a perfect match. By the time he began college, his passion for the photographic process was all consuming.
After receiving a BFA degree from the University of Arizona in 1984, Joel served a three month assisting stint in LA and soon after set up a commercial studio working out of Denver Colorado.
For over 26 years he worked with many of the top advertising agencies across the globe for clients such as AARP, Abbott, Arizona Office of Tourism, AT&T, Febreze, Discovery Cannel, Goldman Sachs, Hewlett Packard, Honda, Hyatt, Phillips 66 Aviation, Pfizer Qwest, Sony, Sturm Ruger & Co, Visa, Volvo, Xcel Energy and most recently Red Bull. Over the years his assignments have taken him to every state across the USA and to over fifty countries around the globe.
In 1990 he produced his first coffee table book, 'Navajo, Portrait of a Nation' which received a number of photographic and design awards as well as an eighteen-month solo exhibit at the Smithsonian American History museum.
Joel considers himself an ambassador for the photographic creative process by teaching workshops and lectures across the globe. "I feel that by being an open book with my process I have an opportunity to inspire others to follow their dreams and passions to create".
Currently, Joel resides in Pasadena CA with his wife and his two boys. He is widely known for his amazing digital composites, and today, he shows us just that. Plus, he sings a song or two and shares his wisdom, his life, and his passion as we enjoy his amazing success in celebrating light, art , and talent....all while being color blind.

Outside the Softbox: Week 9
Lets face it, photographers are everywhere. The cameras are so incredible now days that it's easy to think that we can run a fantastic business, take amazing photos, and charge pennies for hard work. It's so easy to follow the trends of what "the other guy" is doing and we lose focus on learning simple business tactics or expanding our creativity.
Outside the Softbox is an educational discussion or tutorial with various artists that help us all think "outside the box" when dealing with our photos, creative light or our photography business.
This week we'll hear from the Tri-Digital Group. Greg Sims, Jim Armstrong and Matt Hagler are known for their large commercial clients with over 20 years of experience in the industry, plus their zany personality of experimentation with all of their shoots. This week, Matt explains several different homemade "remedies" for light reflection and diffusion.
My name is Matt, I am photographer and "BTS search Guru".
