Today, I decided to scope out the area where I plan to take a couple of clients out this weekend for a photoshoot. So I took my son Samual and daughter Elise with me so they can play in the area, while I looked around. I tell ya, Carkeek is getting to be one of my favorite spot to shoot because of the beautiful trees and the layout of the trails. Just across the way are the beach and railroad tracks. There are so many options and views to choose from to capture amazing photos.

The following shots, I used 2 Canon 580 ex ii flash: 1 in a softbox and 1 is bare. The lens of the day was my 135mm f2.0. I believe the only way that you can grow and better yourself is to truly understand your equipment. I also used Pocket Wizard Mini TT1 and Flex TT5 to trigger my flash.

Enjoy!
