Stark White Backgrounds


Zack Arias gives a tutorial on shooting into a stark white background. It's not how I did it , but I might use it in the future.

For the image at right, I used a white cinderblock wall and direct sunlight. It did not take much to blow out the wall when the jacket was properly exposed. At any rate, Zack Arias is blogrolled. Good stuff there.

  1. Xavier,

    I’ve looked at this post several times thinking, “I should say something… but what?”

    The model is striking and I suspect I have seen her before; she looks like the one I’ve seen in many of your previous posts. Sometimes I’ve seen her in your posts as your photographic model and sometimes as your daughter just enjoying herself on the range. She strikes me as a very poised and confident young woman (and I’m glad she had you for a Dad).

    My best to you and her…

You don't even have to use your name, make something up so the next person can address your comment without confusion.
