Before The Cover Is Put On
My Father and I decided to take his 1965 Malibu SS 396 out one last time before he put it away for the winter.
This was my first outdoor shot of a vehicle with my strobist gear.
The strobist gear was not used for the first shot.

My Wife
I know I said I was going to post some photos that I have taken with my new strobist setup back in September 2011. Well, I am finally getting around to it!
My wife and I went to a park by our house on October 30, 2011 to take some maternity photos.
This was my first maternity shoot as well as my first outdoor shoot with the strobist gear.

Blinded By The Light
The equipment I ordered and wrote about last week finally arrived!
I knew I should have bought two lights, but, I have been practicing with the one light that I have and have captured a few nice shots.
I ended up ordering another flash and umbrella stand last week, so that should be arriving later this week.
I will post some shots that are worth posting later today or tomorrow.

It’s About That Time
The overall goal was to buy Alien Bee's to start messing around with off-camera flash photography.
That plan was pushed to the back burner and I decided to go with a much cheaper alternative.
I have one Canon 430EX flash, so I bought a CowboyStudio Single Flash Shoe Swivel kit along with their NPT-04 wireless triggers.
The kit comes with a 33 inch soft white shot through umbrella.
I bought an extra 33 inch black and silver umbrella along with a 43 inch multi disc light reflector.
Obviously this will only give me one off camera flash. But, I figured I would start off small to see what I can do.
The total for everything listed above was $90 since I already had the Canon 430EX.
I should be receiving everything by the end of this week, so you will be seeing some shots posted shortly after that.
A list of everything that I bought is listed below:
