Hobolite X Adorama

I recently attended an event hosted by Hobolite & Adorama in New York City, and it was an incredible experience. I've been wanting to attend more events to meet people I've connected with on social media, and this event, hosted by Jim Sullivan, was the perfect opportunity. Jim's work is amazing. I've been using Hobolite lights in the studio for the last two months and love everything about them. I will be writing a detailed review of the Hobolite Pro and Avant lights soon.

The event took place at the Mulberry Bar in Soho, a venue I had heard about but never visited. Jim did an excellent job explaining his thought process on how he lights up scenes.

The first scene was set at the bar, featuring two models: one behind the bar and one at the bar pretending to order drinks (Daniela). The scene was illuminated with several Hobolite lights, including the Avant, Micro, and Mini.

The second scene showcased Mynxii , an amazing producer and photographer, modeling on the couch. This setup allowed us to capture more frames using the Hobolite Pro and Avant lights.

During the event, I had a fascinating conversation with Kiran, who asked if I had ever considered writing down my thoughts. I admitted that I always tell myself I should, but then I forget. Writing this, I realized I forgot most of our conversation, but it was impactful enough to inspire this blog post.

I plan to continue blogging regularly, sharing my thoughts and experiences. Blogging will also be a great way to showcase new work, as updating my website every month is time-consuming.

Talk soon!
