Yesterday morning we did our first photo-shoot for this year with beautiful Tye, a model from Lincoln, NE. She showed up well ahead of scheduled time which gave us much needed extra time for preparations, setup two places with lighting, and to discuss about plans for the shoot. She was absolutely amazing to work with.
This was also the first shoot I used my brand new Nikkor 16-35mm f/4G ED lens*. This is a very good lens, especially to use with studio lights, and tight spaces - like my studio which is small. Almost the entire shoot was done using this lens, except for few shots with 35mm prime, and I am pretty happy with the results. Focusing is very sharp, and fast. I had VR turned off all the time because I was never below 1/125s shutter speed.
The other equipment used for the shoot included Nikon 35mm f/2.0 D, Westcott/Photobasics strobes & softboxes, backdrops (muslin), and three Nikon SB series flashes.
The full gallery will be available here soon.
*I was debating between this and Zeiss Distagon T* 25mm f/2.0 ZF.
