Here's a few captures from the Blue Note the other night celebrating Ron Carter's birthday. I used the Leica Q3 and XT5, I'll let you figure out which is which!

I held a portrait workshop at my studio on Saturday and it was AWESOME! Here's a few images I took with the ole' XT5, and as it came back from Fujifilm reset, I failed to set it to raw (I know, rookie move) however these jpegs look damn good anyway. I was teaching how to use continuous lights for portraits, and we broke out the fresnel light and smoke machine for a few. ‪@FujifilmUSACameras‬ ‪@BandH‬

Got my XT5 and 35mm repaired (I dropped both of them). Thank you, Fujifilm — They were sent back fast, and looking like new!

Here’s a few shots I grabbed last night with the Q3. I love it!

I took the Q3 to a jazz club last night and shot JPEGs using the Leica Looks. Color shots of musicians in Classic, b&w with Greg Williams Look. No edits, just SOOC and downloaded to my phone via the Leica FOTOs app. @LeicaCameraGlobal

I've been using the Leica Q3 A LOT over the last few weeks -- I took it to the NYC No Kings rally, spend a day at MoMA with it, used it at portrait shoots, and took it on a day trip to Chelsea Market. I've got a lot to say about it, mostly very positive. But until then here's a some JPEGs to check out. ‪@LeicaCameraGlobal‬

Guys. I did a thing. It was a completely rational, and non-emotional decision. 😂 Lots of content coming your way soon.

Portraits of the amazing Natalia captured at my studio. I used the Canon R5 & 50mm f/.2 lens and 3 lights - a Nanlite in a small beauty dish as key, and a second Nanlite in a large umbrella for fill. Then, I took a small Genaray lighting panel, set it to red at a low intensity, and used it as some direct color fill just to give it a little something extra. ‪@CanonUSA‬ ‪@NanliteGlobal‬ ‪@genaraylighting7431‬

I have a Fujifilm GFX 100S II & 55mm f/1.7 on loan and used it for a portrait shoot with a few of my musician friends. These were shot in JPEG and then edited in Affinity Photo. I went for warm tones in the editing cause I felt it went well with the vibes of these dudes. Oh, and I accidentally shot in jpeg 😂🤦🏻‍♂️ but the files are so good it didn’t matter *that* much (I might do a video on it).
