So I was given a fun opportunity to shoot the Beat Freaks during one of their appearances at a Blended Events show at V2O in Long Beach. I love to shoot photos, and I LOVE the Beat Freaks, but I will admit that I'm a super rookie when it comes to shooting with flash. Actually, I'm just not that technical of a photographer, so when the natural light comes shining in, bring it on. But when I have to get all crazy with the settings, I just mess around and hope that things come out okay. I can also do simple Photoshop stuff like mess with the contrast, but I'm not a wiz at that either.
So here are some photos of the Beat Freaks through my lens. They (my photos) might not be pro, but the Beat Freaks are amazing regardless. It was hard to shoot them cuz I just wanted to watch with both of my eyes as opposed to one eye through the lens. These girls are super fun, and from what I could see, they don't carry an attitude with their status as one of the best dance crews in the world. They get mad respect from me, and if anyone reading this knows them personally, please let them know that I would love the opportunity to shoot them in a different element.
Thank you to Blended Events (RaRa) for letting me shoot, thank you to Brenda the photographer for trying to show me how to work my flash, thanks to the Checkmate film crew for being cool, and thanks to the Beat Freaks for doin what you do!
