Question for everyone: Am I the only guy out there who stumbles into the bathroom early in the morning, flicks on the light, and goes “WHOA” when I look in the mirror? I guarantee you that some mornings I have the wildest “Ace Ventura” case of bed head EVER! It’s so insanely crazy looking that it makes me giggle a little, but I wash it down and give it a good scrubbin’, and all ends well.
It’s rather fitting that this week I drew “Someone getting their hair cut” for my educational challenge. No, you’re not going to see a self portrait of me getting a haircut! However, the idea of a haircut did persuade me to go see the peeps at Kenegdo Salon. (Yes, I just plugged a business on my blog. Deal with it! They deserve it!)
When it comes light, learn to use what you’ve got. Look for what’s readily available to make for a great image. You don’t need to go “Guns a Blazing” with all your fancy light kits, especially if something amazing looking is right in front of you. I’m not saying that you shouldn’t use off camera lighting, and every situation and instance is different (trust me, I know a few people who can really get creative with just a few small light heads), but if you’re going to light, do it wisely.
Kudos to those of you who really understand and use off camera lighting. I tip my hat to you!
