Business Portrait
I regularly shoot business portraits and i enjoy the challenge, subjects often work to a tight diary so I often have only a few minutes, I always get the ‘Safe Shot’ first and then try and find something a bit more interesting, This shot is lit with off camera flash and no light modifier, I [...]

Soft & Gentle
We are really lucky as photographers these days with the digital toolbox we have at our disposal. This picture is lit with a 5 foot strip softbox. Small blemishes on the models skin have been removed with Photoshop’s healing brush, and a ‘glamour glow’ filter applied to soften the image, it certainly beats vaseline on [...]
