Behind the Scenes of Professional Fashion Photography Shoot in Miami Beach FL
with Joseph Cristina Fashion Photographer from Allure Multimedia
As a fashion photographer that absolutely loves working with fashion designers, this gig was a dream. While, being given the opportunity to put the Hasselblad H4D-40 medium format 40 megapixel digital camera through it’s paces in a non-traditional “Run and Gun Style”, “Real World”, “On Location” high fashion photography photo shoot was like giving a kid the keys to a candy store; I’m still on a sensor high! This entire shoot would shot with the Hassy and a back Canon 5DmkII as a control unit!
Run & Gun was my theme – Unlike many, I decided to detach this $20,000-$30,000 camera kit from it’s umbilical cord and shot untethered with high speed UDMA SanDisk 16gb & 32gb Memory Cards.
So …
NO Cables
NO Laptop
NO Pro Lighting (580ex II’s + Pocket Wizards Only)
= Light Weight, Mobile & Tons of Fun!
A full review on my experience with this camera will be soon coming by Press Agent Trevor Current of CurrentPhotographer.com whom flew down to Sunny Miami Florida just to cover this location fashion shoot. Stay Tuned!
The shoot took place in sunny Miami, Florida at Shake-A-Leg Miami Aquatic Center and Marine Academy. You may see some familiar locations in the images and behind the scenes video as several segments of the USA Network hit TV show “Burn Notice” were filmed there, Sailing Dock as well as a Private Island.
Our 10 hour day included 11 creatives all collaborating to make this project a success. I hope you enjoy the fashion photographs and Behind the Scenes video soon to be released.
