SMP x Behind the Scenes
A few weeks ago I got to go behind the scenes with outdoor photography legend, Scott Markewitz. Only this time I was able to see Scott in new light, literally. In this section of Behind the Scenes with SMP, Scott decides to show off his lighting skills by braving the indoors — at the Twilite Lounge in Salt Lake City, UT.
One of the greatest challenges of shooting in the outdoors is conquering proper lighting. Scott being extremely strong in this area of expertise, put his knowledge and skills to use indoors where the dark areas are abundant.
This was a fun lifestyle project. Scott was out to capture real people in real life situations. In this given scenario, he wanted to keep true to the authenticity of what you might expect to find in the local night life scene.
If only I looked that cool taking the cue ball deep to the pockets..
As always, it’s humbling to see this guy taking his lens to new limits and new settings. To check out some more of Scott’s work, check out his website by clicking HERE. Also, be sure not to miss out on Scott’s upcoming photography workshop taking place at Snowbird Ski and Summer Resort Feb. 9-12. For more details on this epic event click HERE.
