HEADSHOTS
Your greatest strength as an artist is your individuality. Your uniqueness should be the distinguishing factor in your photos. There are many elements that make up an effective photo. It must be striking yet natural in order for the viewer to be drawn into the image. As a photographer, my aim is to facilitate direction from behind the camera and to make the experience as relaxed and comfortable as possible.
I recommend natural light as part of this process, as it is the most flattering form of lighting. Since studio lighting can be jarring, I like to work in an environment which enables the subject to connect and be at ease.
One of the advantages of shooting digitally is that there is no limit on the number of photos taken in a session and it allows the client to relax into the session. All the images will be available between 3-5 days after the session.
PORTRAITS
My portrait work has ranged from actors, artists and musicians to children, families and expectant mothers. I work closely with the client to create a unique, individual shoot based on the clients requirements.
I will consult with each client on finding a suitable location and environment for the shoot. The portraits are lit naturally, giving the photos an artistic and distinctive quality. I work in a calm, relaxed atmosphere in order to capture that spontaneous moment. A portrait should reveal the subject’s personality in a flattering yet organic manner.
