For this project: Tell the story of living, working and playing in the Monadnock Region.
Imagine, you are contacted to tell the story of your hometown visually with photos and video. Better yet, there is a ton of creative freedom and a terrific client partner.
Immediately, I had enough ideas to fill a bucket. After all, this is where I grew up and where I eventually returned to live. These are my stomping grounds. Needless to say, I was all in for this one.

I love to hear their stories, lean about their lives, and glimpse into their worlds. #davewhitephoto #jewelrymaking #sonyalpha Chris Ploof certainly fits the description of unique and interesting. His story? Well, he tells it with gusto and enthusiasm. Chris Ploof...

This is a BTS video of a photo shoot with a fitness trainer and model. Learn how to setup on location portraits where we mix flash and available light. We worked with the wonderful @amanda.dire to create photos for her branding as an athletic trainer. Shooting outside on location in Maine in January created some challenges on set. But Amanda was amazingly stoic and motivated. My commercial port...
Black and White Landscape Photography - Winter On the Maine Coast
Просмотров 2,9 тыс.2 года назад
I just had to get out and shoot photos. It is the middle of winter. So I packed up my Sony a1 and headed over to the coast in search of images. The forecast called for clearing skies following a storm. I was hoping for some surf and dramatic clouds. For me, the image determines itself to black and white or color. I love both, but B&W landscapes are generally my favorites. Black and white conver...

Two cameras, two models, two very different looks. Follow us on a beach photo shoot. First we capture action sequences with the Sony A1 and strobes to freeze action. Then we switch to a vintage 4x5 film camera and lens for super soft black and white portraits using a 4x5 Speed Graphic and a Kodak Aero Ektar 178/2.5 lens.

Behind the scenes of a location portrait photo shoot using a vintage 4x5 Speed Graphic film camera and a Kodak Aero Ektar lens. After first scouting a location on a wild and beautiful pond in New Hampshire, we paddled out in a cedar strip canoe to shoot the portrait at dusk.

See why I decided to launch a fine art photography website in this video.
Excellent Video! Question what camera gear did you use to record this video? Did you pack-out two camera bodies and two tripods? Very interested in how you recorded this. Thanks
Thanks for watching. I used a Sony ZV-1 to record this along with a Rode Wireless Go for audio. I also use a Sony a7R III and a Sony a7CII.
awesome
The very well known Sinar large format cameras employ a shutter that is mounted behind the front standard. So lenses produced for them are not mounted in shutters, but are fastened to the Sinar lensboard. Thanks for the presentation! That is truly a very special lens. 👌
@kevin-parratt-artist - yes, I am quite familiar with the Sinar system as well as their brilliant shutters. In this application the bulk of a Sinar camera system resting on a tripod in a New England pond would be somewhat ridiculous. The vintage Speed Graphic is, in my opinion, more fitting to the lens and quite useful in this situation. Precision is not exactly the requirement nor the ultimate goal here. Further, I am not sure if the Sinar system could accommodate the size of the Aero Ektar. Regardless, I am happy with this combo when I decide to set aside my Sony's and settle into a film mood. Thanks for watching. Happy shooting!
fantastic video and portrait.
Hello incredible pictures and video. Do you mind sharing where you got that strap?
Hi Seth - thanks for watching. Honestly, that strap was on the Speed Graphic when I bought it. I don’t know of a source for them.
Super...... Thank you
Pipe wrecks it
Stunning work! May i know what film stock was used?
Thank you. I tend to shoot either Ilford FP4 or HP5 most of the time. Developed in HC110 at 1:31. But I am also a fan of Kodak TMax films. Ilford has been less expensive over the years. For film exposed with the Aero Ektar I sometimes develop in D76 diluted 1:1. Because my lens lacks an aperture mark, I am guessing the settings. Plus I am not sure of the accuracy of the shutter in the Speed Graphic. The longer development times for D76 allows the film more time to mellow and, I believe, compensate somewhat for exposure differences. Of course, that’s total voodoo rationale. But it works for me! BTW, I have found that my Aero Ektar needs to be stopped down slightly to achieve focus.
bravo!
Beautiful man
Outstanding shots! I'm currently experimenting with a hand-me-down 100 year old 5x7 camera but am actively looking for a Crown Graphic or something similar. Thanks for sharing!
Check out my good friend @pgumaskas. He shoots a lot of 5x7 as well.
Those are genuinely great photos. Absolutely incredible
Thank you for your kind words
I like how patient you are an confident about your focussing - it would drive me nuts if my my subject were to move as much between focussing and inserting my film holder :D
Hey Sheldon - thanks for the nice comment. I think you are focusing, pun intended, one a key aspect of shooting portraits with a view camera. The process is very slow and deliberate. The subject must respond in a very specific way for the process to be successful. This reason is what I like about large format portraiture. The subject participates in the process and the images take on a different look and feel. It’s also good practice for expanding my limited patience!
Have a look at the work of Thomas Joshua Cooper.
4x5 film negative is the theoretical equivalent of a 1100+ megapixel digital sensor (debayered) with 22 stops of dynamic range. Awesome stuff
This here is what its ALL about!! Nice job Dave!
Thank you!
Unbelievable pictures Dave! Congrats.
I love living in the Monadnock Region. You captured it perfectly!
Интересно, спасибо
Wow! The 4x5 shots are just fantastic - absolutely stunning. More large format videos please.
Hi Russel - thank you for your kind words. I am, in fact, planning more large format videos. Let me know if there is anything specific that you would like to see. Thanks
It's been over 40 years since the last time we saw each other, and I know you probably wouldn't value my opinions very much, but I will say that I am impressed and inspired by your work. I have been shooting the Monadnock region for the past 35+ years, and hope to see more of your work in the future.
Dave, these photos are GORGEOUS! The way you posed him by gently guiding the movements (boat, ore, pipe, ...), the scouting and pre-visualising the image and the light... I love this type of work! The video is entertaining too - no too agressive camera work, no too loud music. Beautiful, keep it up! Greets from Croatia :)
Alexander - thank you for you kind and insightful comments. I appreciate your understanding of the small details that go into a photo shoot - planning, posing, and light. Thanks for watching.
Hi. Have used Fuji and Kodak colour negs in the past. Found then -That the speed graphic was the best for speed of setup and picture taken(3 minutes) Soon I’ll get back into it with slide/negatives and medium format backs. Thanks Dave for the content.
HI Mike - thanks for watching. Have fun out there.
Ektar shots are stunning. Have a Graphic and Ektar on the way...thanks for the inspiration.
Lovely work fellas great video very Impressive set of photographs. That lens is a keeper. LF is something I've yet to try, at the moment I'm hooked on medium format folders slightly easier to slip in the pocket. Liked and subbed Dave.
Interesting and different 📷👌
Incredible knives!
content creators pretending to be photographers.. heavy sigh
Right? Almost as bad as chirping ankle biters!
Clearly you haven’t done your homework. Dave has spent his entire career as a successful commercial photographer. He’s a wealth of information and talent.
Great work Dave. Apart from demonstrating the amazing work and finished jewellery, it gives a strong sense of the integrity of Chris Ploof.
Awesome, beautiful portraits! !! I love Aero-Ektar, it's bokeh and softness is out of this world. I'm using it on my Pentax 67 and GFX 50S .
Amazing. I’ve been looking to get the aero Ektar for my GFX too. How did you mount it to the GFX?
Very nice work 👍🏻
Really lovely!
Thank you.
I love this shoot. Beautiful shots, Dave!
Hi Bob, thanks for watching. Hope all is well with you.
Awesome images, lovely background blur. What a lens to use 😀
Bravo! I like your loupe, by the way
Thank you! I have had that loupe for many years. I would call it one of my possessions. It's more than a piece of gear. Thanks for watching.
Great BTS! thank you
From the video, to the photos, to the setting & the model.. stunning. Hats off.
Thanks Evan, Amanda is pretty special. Thanks also for the drone footage. It fit in really well.
Amazing shots!!
Thanks, Rafael. We certainly had some beautiful summer evening light.
It’s great to see the variety of looks you managed to capture. I enjoyed this one.
Thanks, Matt. Next time you are in New England I will shoot your portrait!
@@davewhite138 if I’m ever in that neck of the woods, I’ll take you up on that offer.
🔥🔥🔥
Hi Dave, outstanding portraits that give the viewer the feeling of being there - or at least getting very close to the scene. I do love the rendering that the AE provides, and you really show how to make proper use of such a lens! Thanks for this video!
Thank you for those nice comments. The Aero Ektar definitely has a special place in my work.
Excellent videoDave!!
Thanks Sammy! Hope you are getting out and creating some great photos.
Just chanced upon your channel.. very enjoyable watch - you present well in a nice relaxed mood and I do love a bit of black n white photography... loved the image at 7:54 in particular. atb Alan
Thank you, sir. I appreciate the feedback.
The ocean is dramatic and powerful and dangerous. It’s also serene and restorative to the soul. Your images capture both. So beautiful.
Thank you, my beautiful wife!
Great images Dave. It looks like a great stretch of coastline you’ve got there.
Love the Black and Whites.👍👍
Hey Terry, thanks. I am a B&W guy at the core.
Great video enjoyed it a lot
Steven, thanks for watching.
really enjoyable video; great photos
What’s not to love on those vintage cameras?? !!
Well, they are easy to love and difficult to operate. You're right, what's not to love!
@@davewhite138 Exactly!!
@@coastalartistlivingonislan8395 Happy Camping out there! Thanks for watching.
