About Bob Todrick
Expertise
I can answer questions on most areas of photography. Though fine-art nudes is my main focus, I can, as well answer most questions dealing with darkroom processes (including many alternative processes). My expertise does not include digital.

Experience
I have photographed since 1975. Among my clients have been a number of major retail department stores (the Bay, Eatons). I photographed for Canada's premier motorsports magazine for a number of years, and have done much portraiture and wedding photography.
In 1990 I gave up shooting professionally to concentrate on my fine-art work and have had numerous group and one person shows since.

Organizations
Co-founder of the Group of Several.


Publications
Numerous newspaper and print ads.
GRAPHIS photo annual.

Subject: studio flash

Question
What is the different between the digital flash studio and the non-digital flash studio?

Answer
Some of the newer flashes (Broncolor and Profoto are the two main) can be hooked up to a computer.  You can control the intensity of the individual lights at the camera position, by means of a laptop keyboard.  
If your shooting digital in the studio this allows you to preview your image on the computer screen, decide, say for example that your background is too 'hot' (too much light), and drop the intensity of the background light without leaving the camera position.
That's it.
