Rock Band Photo Shoot

[fenderstrat]

These are part of a shoot in a local pub for a band called Fallen Mafia. I used a Canon 5Diii, Yongnuo off-camera flashed (3 in total), Canon 24-70 2.8 mk1 and a Sigma 15mm Fisheye.

Re: Rock Band Photo Shoot

the first is way to tame, the 2nd is much better and I would say an image that reflects the style and type of band

I would echo Ian's Comments as well

Re: Rock Band Photo Shoot

Both good shots...plenty of attitude. ...I'd like to see the high res of the 2nd...the lead singers face looks touch too bright on my screen...but what do I know?!

Definitely second for me, I think the slightly high key (blown highlights?) effect in the nearest face adds to the style and overall grunginess. I think the first needs to be a bit grainier or something, it just looks a tad warm, if that makes sense.
The sort of band I'd have probably gone to see in my younger days but I doubt I am now their intended demographic.

The more I look at it. ..the more I agree...

Re: Rock Band Photo Shoot

The first could be some people waiting for a bus and the flare is a bit distracting but the second definitely has the right amount of rock band attitude. Maybe take the highlights back a tad but still very nice although both would be a whole lot better were you to upload via Flickr as direct uploads always lose so much quality.

Pretty brave using a 15mm fish-eye for portraits I must say

Cheers,
