Malcolm Gladwell

Last week I had the chance to photograph Author Malcolm Gladwell. I'm a huge fan of his book The Tipping Point and have yet to read Blink or his latest Outliers.

Malcolm was in town for the YPC Summit as the Keynote Speaker. The crews of Malone & Co and Torchwerks were on set and I got the opportunity to snap a few portraits of him.

I wanted to go simple, so I took the Strobist approach. Most of the time I resort to a Large Chimera Octabank and Dynalites. This time it was 2 Canon 580 EX IIs and the all new Radio Poppers PXs, which worked awesome as I was able to shoot high speed flash sync to knock out the background. I can't wait to use these outside!
