Pablo's Photoshoot

My good friend Pablo texted me the other night asking if I could take some "pretty pictures of his ugly face". I jokingly wrote back, "with Photoshop, anything is possible".

Thing was he wasn't joking. He needed some "pro" headshots for his CV for and what not by Friday, which happened to be the the next day and the day I left for the Adirondacks. It was 9 at night and very last minute but I figured it'd be good fun and practice! I quickly set up my flash and backdrop in my basement. I had my skepticism about this shoot actually working out... There was hardly enough room to move around let alone take proper pictures. But I made do with a mixture of my flash gelled orange and over basement lights. I used my trusty umbrella to diffuse Pablo's ugly face a bit..jokes!

I also put him against a solid black background so that I can hide it dirty ponytail...no joking this time! But I told him it was to create a more dramatic look ;)

Pablo if you're reading this...I'm sorry but it's true.

Anyways, We took about 50 really quick photos in different shirts. But having Pablo around will always end with good times and shooting him was no different! Here are some of the outtakes from the photoshoot.










Now time for some of the better photos!
