NWLLA - The community commercial shoot.

8:45am - I arrive at Northwest Lifelong Learning Association. Home to good training (I did all my bookkeeping stuff there), good coffee and excellent people. They've become firm friends over the years. Today though, it's a lot of photography in a short space of time.

• Head shots of each trainer.
• A full group shot
• A group shot of technical staff
• A group shot of office staff
• A group shot of volunteers

All this in an hour.

NWLLA is always a buzz of activity and getting the right person at the right place at the right time is difficult, nigh on impossible.

So, one training room has a sheet as a background. I kept the flash on camera with a bounce card and basically got the trainers to line up. Once a group was available I'd take them out to the front and get the group shot done.

A quick head and a notebook. Post production in lightroom to blow out the background on the portraits and the job's done. The actual shooting time was less than 45 minutes.
