Whenever I browse someones portfolio or blog I love seeing setup shots. Not that I wanna know all their secrets of the trade, it’s just that I love seeing the locations without artistic enhancement (i.e. flashes, PP, focal point, etc chosen by the photographer).
As of recently I started taking those shots myself and I’ve been posting them on Flickr whenever I can. Here’s a recent selection with the resulting (or a similar) pic right next to them:
- BMW M3 -


- Nissan GT-R -


- Renault Mégane -


- Kia Sorento -


That’s all for now, but I’ll be posting more setup shots from now on!

Love ‘m! And love seeing setup shots too, always something to learn from other photog’s…
Cool
Always nice to see behind the scenes photos.
What kinda flashes do you use and how are they mounted on your monopod?
