One of the things to come out of the first round with the studio light was the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.alexluyckx.com\/blog\/2013\/04\/polaroid-portraits\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Polaroid Portraits<\/a> that I was very proud of. But on Sunday, before the Large Format workshop kicked off, I again hooked up one of my cameras to the same light and, with the help of Professor Jeff, got all the settings landed and began to pull people in attendance into my studio for a quick shot. Loaded into my camera was a single roll of Kodak Portra 160NC (one of my last rolls!), so I had twelve shots. Usually, when I get the negs back, I don&#8217;t post every frame; however, I loved every shot in this case. Sure, the colour balance is off, and they&#8217;re overexposed, but this was my first time working in such an environment. I will be doing more of this, working with my strobist gear and my now trusty workhorse studio camera, the Bronica SQ-Ai, and sticking to B&#038;W film (faster for me to develop).<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/axle81401\/9427683955\/\" title=\"FPP Walking Workshop - Portrait Session by .:Axle:., on Flickr\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/farm4.staticflickr.com\/3703\/9427683955_23a9e86157_c.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" alt=\"FPP Walking Workshop - Portrait Session\"><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><br \/>\nJJ and his lovely and patient grandmother who put up with all us crazy film shooters all weekend.<br \/>\nBronica SQ-Ai &#8211; Zenzanon-PS 150mm 1:4 &#8211; Kodak Portra 160NC @ ASA-160 &#8211; Processing By: Toronto Image Works<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/axle81401\/9430458308\/\" title=\"FPP Walking Workshop - Portrait Session by .:Axle:., on Flickr\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/farm4.staticflickr.com\/3764\/9430458308_b2f8831bf4_c.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" alt=\"FPP Walking Workshop - Portrait Session\"><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><br \/>\nJJ and his Polaroid Auto 250.<br \/>\nBronica SQ-Ai &#8211; Zenzanon-PS 150mm 1:4 &#8211; Kodak Portra 160NC @ ASA-160 &#8211; Processing By: Toronto Image Works<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/axle81401\/9427694427\/\" title=\"FPP Walking Workshop - Portrait Session by .:Axle:., on Flickr\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7366\/9427694427_183612855a_c.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" alt=\"FPP Walking Workshop - Portrait Session\"><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><br \/>\nThe Ever Dapper James.<br \/>\nBronica SQ-Ai &#8211; Zenzanon-PS 150mm 1:4 &#8211; Kodak Portra 160NC @ ASA-160 &#8211; Processing By: Toronto Image Works<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/axle81401\/9427698311\/\" title=\"FPP Walking Workshop - Portrait Session by .:Axle:., on Flickr\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7457\/9427698311_0a84a7dd70_c.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" alt=\"FPP Walking Workshop - Portrait Session\"><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><br \/>\nFPP Super Fan Mark O&#8217;Brien<br \/>\nBronica SQ-Ai &#8211; Zenzanon-PS 150mm 1:4 &#8211; Kodak Portra 160NC @ ASA-160 &#8211; Processing By: Toronto Image Works<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/axle81401\/9430472410\/\" title=\"FPP Walking Workshop - Portrait Session by .:Axle:., on Flickr\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/farm6.staticflickr.com\/5470\/9430472410_64f464babe_c.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" alt=\"FPP Walking Workshop - Portrait Session\"><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><br \/>\nOhio local Robert, he gave me five sheets of Type-55 Polaroid material which worked wonderfully!<br \/>\nBronica SQ-Ai &#8211; Zenzanon-PS 150mm 1:4 &#8211; Kodak Portra 160NC @ ASA-160 &#8211; Processing By: Toronto Image Works<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/axle81401\/9430478392\/\" title=\"FPP Walking Workshop - Portrait Session by .:Axle:., on Flickr\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7319\/9430478392_11311bf87d_c.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" alt=\"FPP Walking Workshop - Portrait Session\"><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><br \/>\nIt wouldn&#8217;t be a Mid-West meetup without an Argus C3 brick and it&#8217;s owner, Aaron.<br \/>\nBronica SQ-Ai &#8211; Zenzanon-PS 150mm 1:4 &#8211; Kodak Portra 160NC @ ASA-160 &#8211; Processing By: Toronto Image Works<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/axle81401\/9427713093\/\" title=\"FPP Walking Workshop - Portrait Session by .:Axle:., on Flickr\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7385\/9427713093_5045a6c69d_c.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" alt=\"FPP Walking Workshop - Portrait Session\"><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><br \/>\nBill and his lovely wife.
