Grecco shoots Guerilla Style

There’s no doubt Michael Grecco is one of the most famous commercial portrait photographers. His book Lighting and the Dramatic Portrait has been very popular in the photography community. Personally I expected a bit more, bit it still is interesting. Grecco often uses California Sunbounce products. These days it’s pretty common for equipment manufacturers to sponsor photographers in order to create more buzz around their stuff. That’s why California Sunbounce made a  video about a Grecco shoot in downtown LA.

It’s very interesting to watch if you like bending the light just like me.

They call it Guerilla Shooting. Working with a photographer, model, stylist, make up artist, hairdresser and THREE assistants sounds more like D-Day to me. So if any of you California Sunbounce people read this: You can allways sponsor me if you want to film a real Geurilla Shoot. ;-)

    why not?
    Your blog is great and why not have you play with the latest tool from Sunbounce. With you – I know it is in good hands because you know how to enhance and tweak the light. One does not find these skills very often. I love your Frankfurt fish-eye shot with the special remote trigger.

    Please check this site: http://www.sunbounce.com/cms/index.php?id=300 and let me know what you think? You like the idea? – I will send you a MICRO-MINI and Flash-Bracket for testing. Are you interested?

    Where are you based

    regards, Peter Geller
    owner and designer of Sunbounce

    Hey Ron, I did get back to Peter and if you have a bit more patience you’ll see what we’ve come up with.

    Awesome! I can’t wait…I mean, I can, but I am very excited to see what y’all came up with! And by the way, your english is excellent, better than most of us Americans.
