Zack Arias the (in)famous Atlanta music photographer came by Google on Friday. He spent the day with a group of 20 photographers and presented his absolutely fantastic One Light Workshop. I have to say this, “If you want to learn more about lighting, but more importantly if you want to be a better photographer, go sign up for this workshop now!” Zack has One Light workshops scheduled in NYC, Atlanta, and LA. It’s worth every penny and you will leave inspired.  If you can’t make it to one of his workshops in person, Zack has One Light DVDs for sale that are the next best thing.  Zack’s zen-like attitude and approach to photography was a wake up call for me. Rather than take photos everyone has seen before, I now want to take photos that will make people see something they haven’t.

Ok, on to the photo above.  This photo is one from the workshop on Friday. It’s as simple as you can get! A single 430 EX II on full power blasting at Dan from about 5 feet away.  Can’t get easier than that, can you?
