Most of the work I post is from our workshops model photography or street/travel photography.
But we do a lot more of course, including business shoots.
Today I want to share some tips on how I approach our clients and why we score the shoots.
I love the old fashioned photography, think about photographers like George Hurrell or for example the world famous Harcourt studios.
In the 30’s and 40’s you often saw harsh light combined with hard shadows, this can be for example a plant, branches, chair, ladder or whatever you want to project on the background.
As creators we of course demand the absolute best from our screens.
Of course it’s always better to use a dedicated monitor. For example the BenQ monitors I use have a hardware calibration option and are tracking very close to the AdobeRGB colorspace. (and they have a great anti glare coating :D) but does that mean that you can’t use your laptop screen for editing ?
Locations are awesome
But what if they are not?
Well it’s up to you to make them awesome.
Sounds difficult?
Well it can be, but with the proper lighting and lighting techniques you can create stunning images on locations that are far from awesome.
