Utah Strobist @ The Great Salt Lake

I’m finally getting around to posting these photos from the latest Utah Strobist meetup. The group got together out near the Salt Lake Marina for a little off camera lighting event. The idea was to have models there for us to photograph and for everyone to share information about their lighting gear and give others a chance to try out their gear. Full set of pictures here
We started at the railroad tracks, these tracks are one of my favorite spots. I really like how the tracks fade off to the left in these photos. We also were shooting towards the sun so we had a nice rim light to work with. The lighting used were two nikon speedlights at camera left with a shoot through umbrella . A silver reflector was used on the photo above for lighting.

The second half of the evening was spent on the “beach” at the Great Salt Lake. A good friend and great photographer Nate brought a model and some snorkeling gear. Our intent was to get some stock image for our portfolios. We got started a bit later than I preferred but I’m fairly happy with the results. The lighting used was one Nikon speedlight with a shoot through umbrella on a voice activated light stand (Nate or Me).

Great images Scott. I can’t wait to try out those railroad tracks next time I’m in Utah. And the images from later in the evening are incredible. Really dramatic stuff. Thanks for sharing.
