So I have only gotten through one day of the photos from the Steampunk World’s Fair – but oh WOW was it a fun day! Kyle Cassidy, a well known steampunk photographer, ran a workshop allowing us to use a studio setup and take pictures of other Fair goers. I have Sunday’s photos in two sets, sepia (really just a warm black and white, I didn’t take it to full sepia) and regular colors. Click the examples below for the full sets on flickr!
Special thanks to Kyle and the wonderful models in our workshop!
Stay tuned for Saturday’s photos, though I have to admit they aren’t this exciting… 😀 Oh wait, there was a flaming sword fight….
I’m in love with the sepia shot, it’s really beautiful. Did you get any images of the flaming sword fight? You’ve piqued my interest!
😀 thanks! I have a ton of fire photos, but not sure yet how good any of them (such as the sword fight) really came out… I’ve taken fire photos before but the lighting was quite different at this show, for a different effect.
Unfortunately, I couldn’t really get as close to the performers as I wanted to – as a fire performer myself, I knew I could keep myself safe, but they had never met me and I didn’t want to worry anyone during their show.
If the rest of the day is uneventful I should be able to get through Saturday’s photos too.
