I have been asked by my employer if I would like to photograph the leavers prom this year, I jumped at the offer but I am now getting cold feet.
I am in no way going to be judged but at the same time I want to get good results.
I plan to get some outdoors shots when they arrive in various means of transport and then go indoors later to get some more portrait style shots. I have no issue in shooting the outdoor stuff and getting action type of shots, its just the portrait style shots I am worried about and also shooting group portraits. I mainly shoot action photography and outdoor sort of stuff.
I have done portrait stuff in the past but not alot of it. I am have ordered myself an white umbrella, lightstand and speedlite mount etc...
I have watched a many tutitorials on how to get good shots and practiced with out the use of an umbrella.. i.e working with shadows and how the position of the flash makes a difference, camera settings etc.
I feel confident and know I will do fine, the room I have been given has a nice big space to work in so light levels shouldn't be an issue.
Has anybody shot this sort of thing before? any advice.tips would be fantastic
Cheers Matt
