The purpose of this personal project was to try out my new Phoenix Odin TTL flash triggers and to experiment with a new lighting scheme.<\/p>\n<p>We decided to shoot close to where I live, using a graffiti covered wall as a colourful backdrop. One light camera left and one camera right, both close to the wall. It was pitch dark when we shot so the scene is entirely lit by my two speedlights.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2162\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2162\" style=\"width: 641px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2162\" src=\"http:\/\/philippemonthoux.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Dance-Photography-Graffiti-Jorja-Follina-Philippe-Monthoux-1.jpg\" alt=\"Dancer Jorja Follina in front of a graffiti covered wall\" width=\"641\" height=\"960\" srcset=\"https:\/\/philippemonthoux.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Dance-Photography-Graffiti-Jorja-Follina-Philippe-Monthoux-1.jpg 641w, https:\/\/philippemonthoux.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Dance-Photography-Graffiti-Jorja-Follina-Philippe-Monthoux-1-534x800.jpg 534w, https:\/\/philippemonthoux.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Dance-Photography-Graffiti-Jorja-Follina-Philippe-Monthoux-1-400x599.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 641px) 100vw, 641px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2162\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">I asked Jorja to look towards the light.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2163\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2163\" style=\"width: 960px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2163\" src=\"http:\/\/philippemonthoux.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Dance-Photography-Graffiti-Jorja-Follina-Philippe-Monthoux-2.jpg\" alt=\"Dancer Jorja Follina in front of a graffiti covered wall\" width=\"960\" height=\"641\" srcset=\"https:\/\/philippemonthoux.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Dance-Photography-Graffiti-Jorja-Follina-Philippe-Monthoux-2.jpg 960w, https:\/\/philippemonthoux.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Dance-Photography-Graffiti-Jorja-Follina-Philippe-Monthoux-2-800x534.jpg 800w, https:\/\/philippemonthoux.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Dance-Photography-Graffiti-Jorja-Follina-Philippe-Monthoux-2-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/philippemonthoux.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Dance-Photography-Graffiti-Jorja-Follina-Philippe-Monthoux-2-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/philippemonthoux.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Dance-Photography-Graffiti-Jorja-Follina-Philippe-Monthoux-2-400x267.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2163\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">I had known about this location for quite a while.
