Details: After another boring day at work I'm itching to get out of the house and do some shooting. We've been doing all sorts of street shooting and frankly, I've seen enough graffiti and taken enough artistic shots of fire hydrants and parking meters. Its a nice day, queen street should be fairly busy. Anyone want to set up some lights and get in on some Stranger Street Strobist action?


What: Strobist Street Shooting
When: Thursday April 29th, 2010
Time: 6:30PM
Where: Queen/Peter
Bring: Whatever you want.

Nope, we had two stands with umbrellas up in front of a hot dog vendor on Queen & Peter (in front of the parking lot) the vendor didnt seem to mind at all as we were basically stopping people in front of his hot dog stand. It probably helped him with business a bit.

Hahaha touche my friend. He's a fashion design student who's roommate is a model of some sort. Another one of the people we shot was actually a location scout for another photographer. So all in all it was a successful outing.

that's awesome. great shots. mental note...carry camera everywhere.

didn't bring mine into work today, but maybe I can swing by and simply check out your set up. I'm clueless when it comes to lighting and gear and would love to watch how you work (haha sorry that sounds creepy, but not intended that way)
