Meet Trixie

Meet Trixie. My new camera.

Trixie
Its a GoPro Hero 3 camera. I needed a smaller / less serious camera. I figured this one is perfect for my needs/wants. :D I got her from echostorePH for a price cheaper than of local malls.

Charging for a test run
Right now, I'm still reading its manual and familiarizing myself with the controls. I think I need to get some accesories for her. Maybe the tripod mount and some extra batteries.

Here's a test photo that I took.

Not bad for a lowlight shot.
I also used her to video our new year celebration at home. You can watch that here.

Please watch out for more updates from this blog. :) Trying to be active here for this year.

Happy new year everyone <3

What's the use


What's the use of having a lot of batteries, when you end up leaving them at home. 

Bad luck for my shoot earlier. I needed a fresh set of batteries but my I left my spares at home.

I really should have a checklist per shoot.

Misaki Tokura of Cardfight! Vanguard

Just had a Misaki Tokura shoot last weekend with Mimi Monster Cosplay.

First time using Visatec Flash heads. <3

Here's the basic setup that we I did for this set. A basic one light setup to light the model. Small softbox located camera left. Two other lights were used to add color and details to the background glass door. (gelled with red and blue gels)

Light Diagram 1.0
Here's the output.

I would like to thank Vogue Royal Studios for the location that we used. The three lights I used were also provided by them.

More from this set can be found here.
