A Yoga Portrait Session

I recently did photos for a yoga instructor. We had access to a few different spots in the physical education building at Kilgore College in Kilgore, Texas. We decided to do the shoot on one of the raquet ball courts. The head shots were made in a hallway near the raquet ball courts.

All images were created with:

Canon 60D

Canon 50mm f1.8 lens

Yongnuo 565 ex II Speedlight

Vivitar 285 hv Speedlight

60″ Neewer octabox

Camera settings stayed constant at:

ISO 100

1/250 sec

F11

Under the Black Light

I used to subscribe to several photography magazines… for YEARS!!! I read an article in one of the magazines about a photographer who was photographing people under a black light with neon paint. The work I saw him do was amazing. It wasn’t amazing only from a photographic standpoint but he did all of the painting himself. I decided to give a go at it and I did a few themed shoots like that. This is a result from one of those shoots.

Camera: Canon 7D
