While frolicking in Las Vegas with the Rock the Web crew and semifinalist contestants, we figured it would be negligent on our part to not take pictures of the contestants in the swank mansion we were staying in (and rents for US$10,000 a day at normal rates, which I’m hoping we weren’t paying!). After all, the manager of the mansion told us that it was often rented out for fashion shoots. The only problem is that I hadn’t brought any extra camera gear with me, just my 5D, a few lenses, and my trusty ol’ 580 EXII flash (without any light boxes or diffusion). I improvised, and while the results didn’t do the mansion or the contestants proper justice, we still came out with some fairly usable shots. I would love to have another go at shooting in that mansion with my full setup and some proper planning. The creative possibilities in that place were astounding!
