Lights, Camera and Action…….
Saturday, July 25, 2009
Keeping it simple, often the way to go…. To many times we as photographers,we get caught trying to be mister smartie pants and show everyone how good we are by creating even more complex shoots or work the pixels to within a fraction of a micron of total destruction. Adding more lights, more filters and [...]

The latest edition of Capture magazine, a photography related publication aimed at professional photographers, has a cute little story about a well known commercial shooter, who was asked to quote a big international job. This shoot involved stylist, make up artists, assistants, travel and accommodation. In short a fair size job. All went well until [...]

Thank god for a big studio…
Saturday, July 11, 2009
I like to keep thing simple when I shoot, however, I sure my simple sometimes starts to look a little complicated to some. Today’s studio session with a beautiful young ballerina named Stephanie may have been one of those times. This lighting setup is ever so simple, one main light chiseling out Stephanie’s classic features [...]
