Prince, not really, but his face.

Been a while, Im at work right now, have been for 3 days and will be until the 4th of April. So not much going on in terms of shooting and photo stuff.  I have some cool stuff though, so I will be posting it when we have some down time.

Although, before I left Trondheim, I shot something for some friends that run a cool little bar in town. They  are hosting a "Tribute to Prince" party next Friday. What is that dudes name now actually? The artist formerly known as Prince or The artist formerly known as the artist formerly known as Prince? Dont know.

Anyway, they had seen or found a picture of someone creating an optical illusion of being Prince or the artist formerly known as Prince or the artist formerly known as the artist formerly known as Prince by holding one of his album covers over their torso. I wish like hell I had that picture now, so you could actually see what we did. Before and after vibe.

The shoot was fun and really easy because I knew my only deliverable would be one image. And we knew straight away when we had the shot. The look for the image was kinda voyeuristic, amateur, Terry Richardson-ish (not disrespect to him! But he has a very cool style that resembles this.) on camera flash style. But I always take my flash off camera as god intended it to be. Enjoy, N

Strobist Info: One hotshoe in a Lastolite 8-in-1 setup like a soft box (reflective back) with a choke/snoot on a white umbrella. Shot to camera left over shoulder.
