Hey HUGH, thanks for your ideas these are great! Didn’t think about the felt/fabric for glares… that’s awesome!

Just curious what do you shoot with?

You project is nice for indoors or evening shoots.

I would suggest IKEA or any furniture stores that are throwing out those huge boxes. Recycle, help the environment, pick one of those boxes up. They can be collapsible and just tilt box over and slide your poster board in. But paper create glares, so try with felt/fabric and adhere to the inside of the box. And of course use energy efficient bulbs.

My approach would be taking my shots around early morning where there is no cloud or too bright sun that causes shadows.

But if i’m press for time, any good digital camera has very impressive near colors quality with flash on. if it’s not bright enough in cheaper quality digital camera. Take your image as for instance your last darker pics, use Paint Shop Pro and in two steps, use the brightness contrast to brighten the image, then “fill in” tool as “white background” and you can achieve your result in less than 3-5 seconds.

Awesome. I love the sign-language matchbooks and the buildings/sky one on the Photogallery page.

Hey Isaac, so sorry to hear about what prompted your move to SA. But you are so right. The Lord had better plans. Even if you’re working for a church, if it’s taking too much time from your family, something is off. If it takes something drastic and painful to point you in the right direction, He’ll do just that. Yes, in everything, at all times, give thanks. Praying He continue to work on me in that area as well….

Nice dude; thanks for sharing. I never have time for the stop-motion animation I want to do, but one of the weakest points is the lighting — ideas from what you’ve done here will help out a lot. I’ll still probably never get to it, though.

Well said honey. You make me laugh, thats how you warm my heart. I love you with all my heart, you are a wonderful father, husband and best friend. I feel like Cinderella when I am with you. You never seem to amaze me with your wisdom, talents and skills God has unmistakeably given you. I am proud to stand beside you, I wouldn’t have it any other way. To God be the glory I love you.
