Paraddox Photo

Last week I was asked to shoot the rehearsal of Romeo and Juliet in the vision of Rahim Burham, a play that is currently playing at Teatrul National Timisoara. The photos were to be used for different promotional purposes.

I had some doubts if I would be able to pull this one off with my current camera gear, because no flash lighting was allowed so this meant I had to shoot at slow shutter speeds and high ISO.

My lens doesn’t have image stabilization and my camera doesn’t do so well with high ISO so I was kind of nervous about it.

I shot for about 2.5 hours. Most of the time I was running around the X shaped stage trying to get close to the next scene.

More than half the images are blurry(lens blur, motion blur, etc.) but there are some that were pretty decent and ended up being used in different printed and digital promotional materials.

I made a small selection of images (from the ones that turned out not to be blurry).
