In a recent post, I delved into the transformative power of AI in photo editing. Reflecting on a recent challenge, I found myself grappling with grainy images due to heightened ISO settings in a dimly lit environment. Learning from this experience, I meticulously selected my camera gear for my next assignment: capturing the ambiance of a cocktail event at a CPH:DOX after-party. This marked my second venture with Sandbox Films, a New York-based client, and I was determined to showcase consistent quality beyond the initial success of last year. Departing from my usual lens choices, I opted for a dynamic duo: a 35mm and an 85mm, respectively. Now, you might be thinking, "Switching lenses—what's the big deal?" But believe me, it made all the difference. Armed with these new tools, I approached the event with renewed creativity and style. Colours, shapes and objects took on a whole new perspective, and I felt a genuine spark of revitalised inspiration. Additionally, given the familiar dim lighting, I aimed to minimise post-processing time spent on grain correction, prioritising capturing crisp, captivating shots in the moment. And the ironic thing? I was planning on selling my 35mm, as I never use it! I think I might hang on to it a little longer now. A massive thanks and congratulations to Jessica Harrop, Sam Lazar Riviello and the rest of the team at Simons Foundation. Looking forward to next year's event already :-)
