Colombia Day 10 – Salento

January 29, 2012July 16, 2012 robricePhotography / Travel

Today felt like the perfect end to a great photography trip. We ended up meeting Daniel, Keith, and a bunch of students from the Contacto School of Photography in the city of Salento, and they brought along Laura (one of our favorite models) as well as Angie (who did a fantastic job as well). Although …

Colombia Day 9 – Pereida and Santa Rosa

January 28, 2012July 16, 2012 robricePhotography / Travel

We decided to hit the streets again today until we found something interesting, and that didn’t take long at all. Anytime you drive down a major road, chances are that you’ll see some military men dressed in full camouflage holding big ol’ guns, and that’s just what we found. They happened to be throwing out …

Colombia Day 8 – Barcelona and Calarca

January 27, 2012July 16, 2012 robricePhotography / Travel1 Comment

We arrived at a Finca in Santa Elena late last night and woke up to a parrot, some peacocks, and beautiful scenery. Our morning was a bit lazy and mostly consisted of editing photos, shooting video, and lounging around the Finca, but we soon gained momentum once we left. On the way into town, we …

Colombia Day 7 – Armenia and the Contacto Escuela de Fotografia

January 26, 2012July 16, 2012 robriceFilm / Photography / Travel

We had a couple of models lined up for today, so we took our photo gear to the roof and set up shop there while many of the Contacto students got to watch. I mostly assisted Mikey today and got to see him work with professional models, which was great to witness firsthand. When there …

Colombia Day 6 – Chinchina and Palestina

January 25, 2012July 16, 2012 robricePhotography / Travel1 Comment

Today was a pretty relaxed day. We left the chilly city of Manizales and had our site set on Armenia, one of the main coffee region cities of Colombia. We decided to hit the streets of a few nearby cities that had a lot of character, mostly with natural light, a scrim, and reflector. We …

Colombia Day 5 – Resting in Manizales

January 24, 2012July 16, 2012 robriceFilm / Photography / Travel2 Comments

We arrived in Manizales last night and decided to dedicate today to editing photos, editing videos, blogging, resting, doing laundry, and running other random errands. I feel a bit off because I haven’t grabbed my camera at all today, but at the same time it feels nice to take a break since we’ve been going …

Colombia Day 4 – Gold Mines of Supia

January 23, 2012July 16, 2012 robricePhotography / Travel

A few locals of Jardin recommended we check out the Gold Mines of Supia, so we added it to our list of places to check out. Mikey decided that I would be in charge of shooting everything today to see how I apply what I’ve learned over the past few days. There were so many …

Colombia Day 3 – Puente Iglesias and Valparaiso

January 22, 2012July 16, 2012 robricePhotography / Travel1 Comment

The time had come for us to depart from Jardin and continue the adventure. Our sights were set for Valparaiso where we planned to visit a tribe of Indigenous Indians, but en route we stopped at a bridge called Puente Iglesias near the town of Jerico to stretch and get some juice. While walking towards …

Colombia Day 2 – The City of Jardin

January 21, 2012July 16, 2012 robricePhotography / Travel

Our first stop on the way back into Jardin was a cemetery where we walked around to shoot the interesting architecture and backgrounds. Afterwards, we hit the streets with lights, scrims, and softboxes and started to get in the groove of things. Mikey wanted to teach and experiment with a flagging technique for portraits that …

Colombia Day 1 – Medellin to Jardin

January 20, 2012July 16, 2012 robricePhotography / Travel

Today marks the first day of the Road Trip, and to start it off right Mikey and I took a morning hike up the steep, steep hills of Medellin’s streets to get a little exercise as well as a better view of the massive city. Needless to say, I was breathless (in more ways than …
