Are the horror themed shots studio or location or both and what gear would you take to shoot with? The horror themed shots are a mix of studio and location. I love both for different reasons (locations are always great as the models can in- teract with the surroundings and you give you a lot of variety in a short amount of time. Studio is great for setting up a consistent look, fine-tun- ing it and shooting at all times of the day without having to worry about ambient lighting and traveling with gear to locations My go-to gear would definitely be a beauty dish with honeycomb grid and a pair of stripboxes with egg- crate grids. These give a really nar- row beam of light that lets you focus on your subject without spilling light onto your surrounds. Many of my horror shots are done with these and I just haven’t found any other modifi- ers comparable to them! Mike I think readers need to see more - where can they go online? I’m most active on Instagram: Ins- tagram.com/MikeRollerson - This is where I post many of my finished shots, behind-the-scenes photos & videos and Instax shots. I also post the finished shots in high- er-res at www.MikeRollerson.com 27
