the fun part of this shoot was using my strobe for the first time ever and facing the umbrella the wrong way and blinding everyone in the restaurant and having them all complain
but also my friend and I worked out a deal where he bought me the strobe, I got all the food, and I got a gift card so it was solid. trying to hit up some restaurants soon to do some shit

Kudos if true, you certainly made a shitty set up look like a high grade set up.

Your lighting is flat, very flat.
And the pictures look pretty much like cellphone shots.
>>3105653
Hey m8 your mom's chest is flat
Chromabs aside, these reeeaally painfully look like they were lit with a single desk lamp (or underpowered strobe) held too close to the subject. Your highlights are too hot, there is too much contrast, and little to no fill.
Back your lights off, physically. You'll have to increase your flash power or exposure to compensate, but ths shadows and contrast ratio will be much more natural as a result.
I recommend hitting up the Strobist and burning through most of his tutorials.
>>3105462
I like your photos and set up anon.
I would like to do food imagery someday.

Carlo your fake yeezys are crap, sorry
>>3105704
to be fair the shoes are black and white anyways but yeah I need to work on better lighting shit. I need some softboxes or whatever.
I should probably try the light further back too. I'll watch those tutorials.
>>3105731
do what you gotta do bro
>>3105748
don't disrespect me you know I wouldn't buy fakes
>>3105462
Great shoes, you could walk round compton all day and no one would bother you, not even hood niggers be seen robbing someone in fake yeezys that bad son.
>>3106004
Dude I bought the same in aliexpress for 12 bucks
A roll of Provia I recently had developed, along with my ME Super
>>3105464
Photos are not bad but yeezys are fake you can even see here the chinese label
>>3106039
honestly I've been prepared to say they're fake if someone ever tried robbing me
>>3106051
they probably look and feel like shit though

Ok my dude. What's up with "people's republic of China" on the label?
>Op's buyer's remorse in 3...2...
>>3107955
it has two sides my man, it came from the adidas website lol
I sold 'em tho. used $$ to help buy my new camera
Good effort on the photos, but as others have said, the light is sort of flat. A little pop of (coloured?) rimlight wouldn't harm and maybe a reflective base?
But then,
>paying hundreds of dollars for some china quality plastic shoes that will look like shit in a month if you wear them outside.
As a wise man once said, fashion is for those who have no taste. Pay 300-500 dollars for nice leather shoes and you won't have to buy another pair for decades.
>>3108443
I definitely should order some colored gels, in fact I've been thinking that forever and I should do it right now.
and bro I sold them as soon as I bought them but I asked the guy if it was cool if I took some pics first. I used that money towards a new camera and it's my 6th time selling a pair. it's a good way to make quick $$
>>3108921
You sold them for profit? Well, good for you, but whoever bought them is a god damn idiot.
