Frank Doorhof Lighting Workshop

I got to assist Holland native, fashion and glamour photographer, Frank Doorhof, at the "Secrets of Lighting" workshop in Los Angeles. The workshop was organized and run by Palm Springs photographer Bill Miller. It was a lot of fun and a good way to spend my weekend before finals. I learned a lot and got to meet a bunch of other photographers, models, and makeup artists. On Saturday we shot at a $5 Million penthouse suite on the 21st floor, at the most expensive apartment building in L.A., The Californian on Wilshire. On Sunday we shot in a courtyard area behind a photo gallery, The Perfect Exposure Gallery, in downtown Los Angeles. Here are some of Frank's behind the scenes shots.
Although I was kept busy by carrying equipment, setting up lights, and running errands such as picking up water and lunch, I was lucky enough to be able listen in on Frank's teachings and even get in a few shots myself. It was definitely worth driving up to L.A. two days in a row for.

Great shots there Scott - for the limited shooting those look sweet! You and Bill did a great job helping with those setups, by the way. It was a pleasure meeting you out there, the infomation sharing made the time spent even better. It was definetly a fun workshop and to have the chance to see Frank in action was the icing on the cake. I'll keep checking back into your blog and gallary from time to time, there is some good work in there.
