Behind the scenes video… first time splashing around in Adobe Premiere.

I’ve been featured on Phottix’s “Photog-Friday” section.

Most photographers would have probably heard of the brand Phottix. They are based in asia and make a lot of photographic accessories such as wireless remotes, PocketWizard compatible remote flash triggers, battery packs, flash/studio accessories and more!

Last Sunday after helping Dave shoot his fashion swimwear shot. I shot Amanda for a photocomp (photos after the comp) and afterwards with nothing to do we decided to throw 2 girls in the shower and see what we came up with. Steamy action Video to come later on

Most would remember the fabulous Marta whom I shot with before she headed off to the UK. She’s featured in Super Star Magazine along with a few photos we took.

Finally the Mola Setti arrived to me from Honolulu via Melbourne. It’s big… way bigger than what I thought it would be! It came with no mounting system (which I already knew) so I bought a generic speedring and used the insert which fit perfectly. Can’t wait to use it!

Finally Dave has finished cutting up the video for the last Location workshop in Sydney. Gold Coast is next so if you want to be kept informed on the Goldy workshop (or future ones; just state your location), email me – ed@edwardhor.com

Over the weekend I stayed up at Newcastle to shoot on Friday night, Saturday all day and night. Between me and the makeup artist I think we went through about 11 RedBulls! Quick edit of a last minute beauty shoot with Becky Lamb & Ashley Hayman.

More to come…

Yes finally… I have a new editing machine. All this time I’ve been editing on a 2 year old laptop with 2gb ram and using the trackpad! From one extreme to the next, is an Intel i5 machine, 8gb ram, 1gb video card powering a 30″ Dell running at 2560×1600 resolution. Now to find space to put it.

Lightroom is so much better with that much real estate on the screen!

About a week ago my Moo cards arrived. What makes these unique is that you can have a different photo on the back of each card! What I did was order the 50 and did 5×10 different photos. The cards aren’t cheap but the quality of the cards and the different photos on the back means it would more likely to be a memorable card than the plain white ones. You can create your own cards at www.moo.com

Bought a Mola Setti from Hawaii for a great price. Then I realised how the hell I’m going to get it back to Sydney economically?! Luckily Mic Cullen (thanks Mic) had a mate (thanks Steve) who just landed in Hawaii and was willing to bring it back to Melbourne for me. Here it is… sitting in Mic’s lounge room inside a SKB road case. Boy it’s big. Now to get it from Melbourne to Sydney.
