Messing around with a speedlight for some flash photography self portraits. I like this one.

I’m not done editing the photos from the shoot yet but this nice family walked by while I was set up with the lights and agreed to help me test whether there was any light falloff or hotspots in my flash setup

Not bad for my first time using off camera flash! (I did a shoot with off camera continuous light several years ago but that’s different, you can see what you are doing) #photography #strobist #flash #portrait

How I shot the clock photo:
To capture a reflection, the intended source has to be well lit. I started by aiming 2 flashes where my face would be. I used hard light because it was easier to get intense light on my face and control spill without dealing with big modifiers.
The rest of the clock was still dark. To light it, I added a softbox behind it on the left, a reflector on the right and another reflector right under the camera.

Inspiration for shooting my reflection in a clock came from this experimentation I did with reflections 14 years ago:

I shot this #SelfPortrait for the cover art of a single I'm releasing soon. This was all done in camera - that's my actual reflection. Getting the lighting just right was a pain, but I'm happy with how it came out. I'll post about the process/setup later today.
