Editorial Photographer – Holland Hill Stables for Ottawa Magazine

Editorial Photography by Justin Van Leeuwen JVLphoto

Ottawa Magazine comissioned me to visit Holland Hill Stables late last summer as the editorial photographer in their most recent issue. The shoot centered around A camper that Katie uses out in the field during the summer with her children.

Being a farm, it couldn’t be as simple as taking a photo of a trailer in the field, of course I wanted to showcase the denizens of the farm. We chased down chickens, were visited by dogs, cats, and a freaking pony!

We timed it so that the sun would be lower on the horizon and then carefully filled in the shadows to reduce the contrast with a 135cm Elinchrom Octa on the ELB1200 using high-speed sync. Pretty much the only way I know of to get that kind of power in the middle of a field to shoot at 1/2000th of a second.

Thanks to Rob Lloyd for assisting me on the shoot, taking some of the BTS, and just all-round looking great.
