Technical: Canon EOS Mark III, 1/100 at f4,5 with a 24-70 at 64mm – ISO 800 + hand held flash on a VAL1 with a stofen on camera right
I carry a camera almost all the time. When I go to see friends or have a coffee, I don’t bring 2 or 3 flashes, pocket wizards, and all my camera bag. I usually bring the versatile 24-70, one 550ex flash with a stofen omnibounce to diffuse the light, and the Canon Speedlite Transmitter ST-E2 to fire remotely. I can travel light, but still can take a flash off-camera and create beautiful portrait.
1VAL: Voice Activated Lightstand. Yep, that’s a flash held by someone else that can move the flash around according to your need.

I did this assignment this fall for Toronto based YFM magazine. I could not show it before publication. So here is some photos of La Belle Époque restaurant in Montmagny (Qc, Canada).
They wanted a complete coverage of the building, a portrait of chef Lucien Dubé and some of him while cooking, some food shot, etc.
Since I did this a while ago, I don’t remember my light setting, so I’ll skip the technical details for this one.
