(Headshots, like when they are intended for modeling or acting.) For the person in front of the camera, skill is required to create meaningful changes in their expression. This is a lot harder, and subtler than my normal portraits. From a photographers perspective, every little detail counts and lighting needs to flatter based on the subject. I tried 2 different lighting configurations: (1) clamshell (or butterfly) with a soft box centered overhead and a fill below, (2) for the last shot below, I used a traditional soft box to the side, and then added in a soft side light to accentuate the hair. It was a lot of fun to try new things and work with Olivia to get what she wanted.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJpqq4i2tRn49B6hEoSijwX7-3phgWiFwfESrFJXba5aal4UmuXk3BAS3O5egXpfHP1Q2ZP5TXIVUBAKpUp4CUZYjIEPed49daFvFaBIcMrR8o-_ghAbQX7Yk-7j4EbTJiGhH6sZaBJydtZCACV2wcSlPr6k4Y5qKkNJlXGSzbhVI7Ch_n8qZyMOzX6w/s4894/2023.01.27_00316_Matt%20Kirk.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4894" data-original-width="3256" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJpqq4i2tRn49B6hEoSijwX7-3phgWiFwfESrFJXba5aal4UmuXk3BAS3O5egXpfHP1Q2ZP5TXIVUBAKpUp4CUZYjIEPed49daFvFaBIcMrR8o-_ghAbQX7Yk-7j4EbTJiGhH6sZaBJydtZCACV2wcSlPr6k4Y5qKkNJlXGSzbhVI7Ch_n8qZyMOzX6w/w266-h400/2023.01.27_00316_Matt%20Kirk.jpg" width="266" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgM7LYrwLaPmCQIL-LiDTFyEECtzxhGnpShzh6hVX1Pk465nfEUu7uwXppH-BybZZvMfv67rLZzwlG59SV7mCuLYVH8W3dyQ5wwIH_ienKf8h5KJUL2bLriKVJkCOTi93g_F6hMe7kZLsPdzewxcI5yGxzDu4JKfJ-CqQrX8BUkr6jdZiD1juuO2YLAPQ/s5359/2023.01.27_00342_Matt%20Kirk.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="5359" data-original-width="3566" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgM7LYrwLaPmCQIL-LiDTFyEECtzxhGnpShzh6hVX1Pk465nfEUu7uwXppH-BybZZvMfv67rLZzwlG59SV7mCuLYVH8W3dyQ5wwIH_ienKf8h5KJUL2bLriKVJkCOTi93g_F6hMe7kZLsPdzewxcI5yGxzDu4JKfJ-CqQrX8BUkr6jdZiD1juuO2YLAPQ/w266-h400/2023.01.27_00342_Matt%20Kirk.jpg" width="266" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmcGWHUKENVTJjmRPzP55TWxm5b_Ke_vpfwA7Mo690d8CV6NqHKNsZYfm7JqH0FqhvEgzxJf5809OIhPpmvcHsK7VBOxHVm63DVQV4WamvxpECk5ew6UeCymKb-kNg4BNVX3AI71vmj_HaAdsMX-D40IfnEWdegEvL0HJmkGtzFNwkIXtzP2pU3uAxFQ/s5285/2023.01.27_00352_Matt%20Kirk.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="5285" data-original-width="3516" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmcGWHUKENVTJjmRPzP55TWxm5b_Ke_vpfwA7Mo690d8CV6NqHKNsZYfm7JqH0FqhvEgzxJf5809OIhPpmvcHsK7VBOxHVm63DVQV4WamvxpECk5ew6UeCymKb-kNg4BNVX3AI71vmj_HaAdsMX-D40IfnEWdegEvL0HJmkGtzFNwkIXtzP2pU3uAxFQ/w266-h400/2023.01.27_00352_Matt%20Kirk.jpg" width="266" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEij4kere3uVesJQiAsSiyVHuYQGu8mC4raNK4iWIJnBXWP4JdHM6rlVH4k7qMD47qPLr4Uj9FlEaKs3BtEmDH0eyXxu-alRM6Om5WPyQZvvjt2HdxqKhh2zRLPqQhXEwa5BSicGJfmq9i05YdWo2dRl1WwQqIBUkurOKPMRQeCN4oyaAyOER0slMiskFA/s6048/2023.01.27_00358_Matt%20Kirk.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="6048" data-original-width="4024" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEij4kere3uVesJQiAsSiyVHuYQGu8mC4raNK4iWIJnBXWP4JdHM6rlVH4k7qMD47qPLr4Uj9FlEaKs3BtEmDH0eyXxu-alRM6Om5WPyQZvvjt2HdxqKhh2zRLPqQhXEwa5BSicGJfmq9i05YdWo2dRl1WwQqIBUkurOKPMRQeCN4oyaAyOER0slMiskFA/w266-h400/2023.01.27_00358_Matt%20Kirk.jpg" width="266" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAwfCAr6rgayqJ3x9XmMEvozolaEbJwDGlKiWV3aPmOI7Phb5TGsdC3lqnLvDceYtc9MUxtMutRccp1Rpiaeqn3XlEpwCCqAaQKrGDidnrlq4xWfX4vb63AvDMS4a3G7vBaSWP_3kkJIssmh2DjtS1zmbU_uQJsLvnfvhi0r1Hm90PPiJMJd1mzRcSjA/s6048/2023.01.27_00388_Matt%20Kirk.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="6048" data-original-width="4024" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAwfCAr6rgayqJ3x9XmMEvozolaEbJwDGlKiWV3aPmOI7Phb5TGsdC3lqnLvDceYtc9MUxtMutRccp1Rpiaeqn3XlEpwCCqAaQKrGDidnrlq4xWfX4vb63AvDMS4a3G7vBaSWP_3kkJIssmh2DjtS1zmbU_uQJsLvnfvhi0r1Hm90PPiJMJd1mzRcSjA/w266-h400/2023.01.27_00388_Matt%20Kirk.jpg" width="266" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p>Matt and Sarahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06701968540815724563noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3393558261410408456.post-8134599782106543412022-10-03T17:43:00.002-04:002022-10-03T17:43:56.566-04:00Seniors 2022<p>Fall is always a fun time of year; one reason is that it is senior portraits season.

So when Lou asked me to photograph his wedding to Nikki, I jumped at the chance. Seeing how nervous he was before the first look was so much fun (in a friend sort of way) and seeing how his daughter has embraced Nikki was heart warming.

Since my big fancy camera is in the shop, I ended up walking around with just my x100s point and shoot and an extra battery in my pocket. After about 20 feet into the woods I realized I should have brought one other piece of gear...bug spray. I ended up chasing the light as I was running from the mosquitoes. About an hour later, I realized I forgot another piece of gear...a compass. I was glad I did think to bring a flashlight though.<br />

<span style="text-align: start;">This all started during a long e-mail conversation with a friend of my dads. at some point in the conversation, I mentioned how I have always loved the look of medium format slides that we have in our work archives. A couple weeks later, an entire Mamiya 645 1000s kit (4 lenses too!) showed up at my door. </span></div>

Shooting film has been a lesson in the basics. Not as much exposure, but intentionally. I really think about shots before I hit the shutter. not just because each frame costs money, but of how much work it takes to get that frame back.<br />

And that is why film is better. I never said at what, mind you. At least for me, film is better at making me think about the frames I am getting, and to be supper intentional about the shutter release.<br />

Film is not better at image quality, I will say that. In fact, I used a digital camera to digitize these images (more on that later) but what it is better at (from a quality stand point) is dynamic range (more on that later too).<br />

I made a huge mistake here at the end. I was unaware that i had to seal the film once it was done. I was puzzled that there was nothing to seal the film after it was on the spool. I found out later that i had to lick a flap of paper to activate the glue (think mailing envelope) to keep the spool tight. i did not do this. Therefore, there was substantial light leakage at the end here. But to be honest, i thought i would have lost a lot more than I did. Also there are odd Kodak watermarks through the images...not sure if that is the film developer (therefore not my fault0 or if it is another side effect of the sealing failure on my part.<br />

<br />Why is it "Better"? Not because of the quality of the images, but the experience.

After 15 days of foreign food (that was good by the way) I was craving something more familiar.<br />

I think the next time I am there I will have to try and find the indoor ski resort. But just walking around and taking in the sites was enough for one evening.<br />

I don't think I have been to an airshow since I was in elementary school. So having the "stars align" (and a very gracious wife) landed me at EAA this year. A friend has been trying to get me to go for quite a while, but with 2 young kids we always had other forces pulling us away. Of course I took my camera, but I was really trying to take in the sites first, a discipline I always need to work on.</div>

If you live in the mid-west, and like a good show, EAA is hard to beat...actually some would say it is the best in the world. Not sure the best flying show, but the best display of working airplanes (historic war-birds to modern "homebuilds" and a lot of Experimental Aircraft in between) and amazing culture of flying is definitely world class. It was like Disneyland for kids with their planes.</div>

Over the weekend I was able to connect with an old fried as we walked the Arboretum and talked photography. But I was torn, I wanted to keep shooting (I don't get out much these days) but I also wanted to run back to the car, I was getting eaten alive. There has to be a reason that God created mosquitoes...other than to test my patience. I understand the existence of ants, spiders, and snakes...but not of mosquitoes. I must be more susceptible to them because John wasn't as bothered. </div>

These last 2 images have me excited. Not because of these images but because of the FILM images that I took along side them. I am borrowing a friends medium format film camera and I just fired off 2 frames. It totally changes your perspective and I think about my shots more with film. Not just because I only have 15 frames in a roll or I can't see the image to know I got it, but because it actually costs money every time the shutter fires. Though, is a different way, it is a lot more satisfying. Looking forward to the results.</div>

Not because she was awake with a child and wanted company, but because the light was amazing and we had a great layer of fog. (Can I brag for a sec? I love that my wife has learned to recognize great photography light!) Anyway, I texted a friend and we set out to see what we could find. I hesitate to call it a photo walk...but we walked, talked, and took a couple photos.<br />

I learned long ago that great light makes a huge difference in image making. And I was reminded again of that...and moody light is even more fun. But, an unexpected lesson was that it takes time to make photos. Something I have not had a lot of lately. Thank you Sarah, for giving me the time to make photos this Fathers Day.</div>

Although, I am not saying that I wanted to be the primary photographer, because then I would not be able to enjoy the wedding, but more so that I wanted to photograph it because that is how I sometimes remember things better, or experience them fully. (Yes, I know, my wife also tells me that I need to get over this.) <br />
<br />
I was able to grab my camera for a little bit though, especially after the kids were asleep.<br />
<br />
Congrats little bro, had a blast and it was an honor to stand next to you. What a way to ring in the new year!<br />

Growing up, we had a tradition of joining my Dad's sisters the day after Christmas. After I moved out of state, it seems like we all went and had kids. So for the first time in over 9 years, I was able to connect with cousins and all their kids. Problem was, several of us were sick, so lets just say that photography was not my first (or second, or third) priority. But I did manage to get a hand full of snaps.</div>

Steve, Adam and I walked around waiting for the sun to set, then we attempted to do a little light painting. Every time I try this, I think I need to do it more.<br />

Well, now that InterVarsity's Staff Conference is over, I can share the video with you. I was lucky to be the backup video producer for this shoot, the original producer was not able to travel at the time Will was going to be able to host us. Therefore, I traveled to Honduras solo, but was well taken care of by Will and his team of sales associates as they visited the factory. Back state side, a coworker (who was originally supposed to go) edited the following video.<br />

To be honest, I am not sure if the first time I photographed the Johnson's (see that <a href="http://fpphoto.blogspot.com/2011/10/portraits-family-of-6.html">here</a>) was easier than the most recent two years later....because now the boys (and adults) know me and I have less of the "be good for the strange man with camera" behavior. Now it is more of the "poke Matt with a stick to make the kids smile" trick.</div>

But it is fun photographing good friends, knowing the lives and stories I am trying to capture, and knowing how fast they have grown up, makes it feel like an intimate family excursion. Proof that I am "part of the family" came when a passerby offered to take our picture so that I could be in the photo too.Matt and Sarahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06701968540815724563noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3393558261410408456.post-31003346851050720292013-10-10T15:10:00.000-04:002013-10-10T15:10:22.639-04:00just returned from hondurasmore to come, but here is some of me, and then the photos I took at the same time...<br />

I took a lens that I usually love to hate, and decided on pushing myself into a creative corner of simpler compositions. I walked into the woods at a very slow and contemplative pace for 45 minutes, but when I ran out it only took 3. It was an interesting exercise that surprised me in the results.<br />

And it is awesome. It is interesting doing this many; I was able to get an interesting selection of personalities, shyness, adventurousness, outfits, settings, willingness, and silliness. Because they were all within a month it is easier to compare them. It was also a stretch to think of unique settings, poses, situations and moods for them all. It would have been fine to do all the same stuff with all of them but it was fun to try and create shots that were representations of each of the seniors...plus where is the fun in trying the same things?<br />

In the spirit of doing nothing, I even limited my photography. Obviously, I shot some photos, but only what I saw; I didn't go looking for images or on photo walks. I even limited my gear to 1 prime most of the time.<br />

On a recent camping trip, I had the same experience: the "wild life" that I was trying to capture was cough playing with the camera that was trying to do the capturing. Luckily Sarah had a little point and shoot ready to preserve the cuteness.</div>

and Turf Region in California.</span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 12pt;">This was

to document this now 13 year partnership has been one of my goals as a 2100

<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;">The term "Black Box" is often used to explain an unknown process, like a business or decision making. Some have devoted entire blogs to the process of explaining this Black Box of photography and video. In my own experiences, I have found that it is more of a mindset than a set of steps or parameters. That mindset is more of a "do the best you can with what you have" attitude, pared with a "willingness to roll with what is thrown at you". </span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;">Every shoot I have been on has required me to forget almost 1/2 of my plans and make up new ones. No matter how much I know this, it still catches my off guard. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;">But the new lesson I learned in Bosnia was in the "how to gain access to your subject" category. I would have never thought that this would required us to participate so much instead of observing with our cameras. W</span><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;">e were forced to take coffee, eat
food, walk, talk, and participate in "culture" for hours before breaking out the camera. Yes, poor
us. At first this worried me because of how expensive (time wise) it was to get only a couple shots. But once we realized this, it made total </span><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;">sense</span><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;">, Bosnian students thrive on just being together for long periods of time. We "knew" this, but i</span><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;">t is a little ironic that we were trying to capture a part of the culture that we fell pray to. In the end it yielded great shots that were more authentic and true to the project.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;">Almost half the time we were planning on shooting was devoted to "gaining access" by interacting with our subjects; by the end of the shoot I was glad had to had the 14 days to spend.</span></div>

This country holds a very significant placeholder in the narrative that has become my life. This is the place where I was first faced with the reality of a global God, and not just the idea of it. This was the place where I realized I wanted to do something for the Kingdom. This was the place where photography became more than just snapshots, but a way of expressing myself. And this was the place where I decided that when I get home I want to get to know one of the girls on the team, a girl that is now my wife.<br />
<br />
I was able to finally revisit Bosnia for a video project (well 4 actually videos) a couple weeks ago, where I learned more about myself, my craft, and this place.<br />
<br />
More images and stories to come, but these are the images I set out to capture that reminds me of the feel of the place. Bosnia is rich in history, religious identity, beauty, juxtaposition...and coffee.<br />

We shot a couple photos, walked a couple miles, and talked a lot. We were not necessarily attempting to do any of that...but it happened...a lot less pressure that way.<br />

Three years ago, a coworker and I created this film, this last week we updated the narration and re-shot the ending. Other than the fact that i really like our improvements this also falls on my first fathers day...so I see this with entirely new eyes.<br />

Growing up in California I never understood what Cabin Fever was. Today I was appreciating green trees, waiving leaves, and running water as if I was seeing it for the first time. A member of the Photo Group I am part of suggested Parfery's Glen, a ravine I have visited before but was very intrigued to see it again in different weather. I found myself running up the ravine, jumping from rock to rock, as if I was 18 again. But, once we reached the end, it did start snowing on us...which felt weird since it was sunny and 50 degrees.<br />
