Last Friday I headed downtown to meet the boys from One Acre War to shoot a set of band promos and have a few laughs. This was my first time really putting my lighting setup to the test including my new DIY beauty dish made from a flowerpot! Here are some of my favourite shots from the night.

I had a great time on this shoot. It was my first real attempt at shooting this many people and using multiple lights, so there were a few “test” shots taken (some of which are hilarious – but you won’t see them from me!). For a main light I mostly used my DIY beauty dish which worked quite well, as well as my softbox when I used to front lights.

Big thanks to One Acre War, they’re an amazing band and just plain ol’ good people. Check them out on Facebook, ReverbNation or YouTube. Or better yet, drag your butt out to a show and see them live! Get out and support your local music scene, wherever you may be.

I’ll be looking to do a lot more of these shoots, so if you’re in a band (or maybe even if your not!) and want a  promo shoot done, get at me (info@dannysheppard.com) and we’ll set you up!
