For twenty years I did a lighting workshop each year at this convention for photographers - two lectures in two days. I have wondered what the new photographer would do, and I was pleasantly surprised. She is a photographer in New York who does celebrities, among other things, and she was a terrific speaker, and showed people how to light simply, with the small flash units that most photographers starting out actually own. And she was funny, and told wonderful stories. This may seem strange to see the subject of this particular demo sitting on the floor, but the photographer tethered her camera to her laptop, which was connected to a projector, and we could see each image as she took it. Very cool. I like this shot because the subject seems overpowered by the photographer, her assistant, and the equipment.
