I had the great pleasure of meeting life coach Regan the other month for a Linkedin / website profile portrait shoot.
In fact we met in a Brighton coffee shop and chatted for ages and drank coffee and I pulled the camera out and took a few portraits.
I really like this informal relaxed way of photographing as it really didn't feel like a shoot at all. I'm a great believer that to get a great portrait / profile shot you need to be relaxed and comfortable in front of the camera, so I spend a bit of time trying to get to know my subjects, which I think works out better for both of us.
So please do give me a shout if you'd like to meet for a coffee.......erm.... i mean have a portrait / profile / headshot taken.
Mine's a latte.
Two years ago I got to take the portrait of a Brighton photography Legend. Tony Tree, who was a staff photographer on the Argus newspaper for a long time in the golden age of print.
I remember having a great time on the shoot while photographing Tony and I was just asked this morning if someone could use the photo I shot back in 2016 for another article. So I thought i'd revisit the images from the shoot to see if I could offer them anything else, and I came across this photo that didn't work for the first article, but I really think it captures Tony's reflective nature.
So I suppose the moral of the story is that it can pay to look at your work with fresh eyes and a couple of years distance.
Oh and here is the original image from the portrait shoot we used two years ago.
As part of my ongoing project to capture The Way We Work for Viva Brighton Magazine, I got to shoot a load of portraits of scientists at Susssex University in their labs.
They were a really interesting bunch of people and I seem to remember having some good discussions with them.
It's a portrait of a man holding a chicken. What more do you want?
Ok it's the Farmer David from Mile Oak farm in Brighton and I photographed him for Viva Brighton Magazine.
Happy now.
As part of my ongoing project to capture The Way We Work for Viva Brighton magazine, I got to photograph a load of Architect's portraits the other month.
I love how they are all wearing similar tones and colours. Maybe it's an Architect's thing.
