Redeemer Nightclub, Leicester

The photographs below were taken at Redeemer Nightclub in Leicester. I've been working there for almost a year now and below are just a few of what I've done. Nightclub photography isn't my type at all, but I mainly went into it for the experience, with this gaining a huge amount of confidence at the same time. The photo's look like they might be point and shoot, but that's where its different, every club is different. Redeemer in particular is very dark and has a lot of coloured lights as well as smoke machines, for a photographer smoke machines are the worst! There are so many different things you have to be aware of when taking nightclub photo's that you might not usually do taking photo's out in the open. The settings I use is a 1/6 Shutter f.3.5 ISO:100 (with an attached speed light) I found these settings worked best and also the quality of the photo's outside managed to stay the same and didn't become over exposed which was great. Still after all this time I cannot say I've managed to learn the complete technique.
