Headshots

Been looking to get into doing more headshots so, if you're in the Philly area and looking for some shots, let me know!

Portrait Photography

Two portraits. The first was shot in studio and then post processed to give a look similar to Dragan's work. His work is post processed quite heavily but I've always liked it, having an almost film still quality to it.

The second is a portrait taken of english model Kitty, in Cork. I always loved the lines of her arms and legs, the positioning of her hands and feet. The quality isn't great as I've had to rob the image from my Flickr due to losing all the original images. Lesson being back up, back up, back up everything. But you live and learn...

Current Project Update

Went out this evening and got two more portraits for my project (which is detailed in a previous post just below). Decided to put them up now as I'm really happy with them. Along with a house that is right near myself. A nice little house except that all the windows and doors are bricked up.

Jane McGrath

My first proper post with some pics of super talented irish actress Jane McGrath. Taken today in Dun Laoghaire, I've decided taking pictures of actors is great because they don't seem to need any direction, they just do it. Great fun. Just a quick addition, these were shot with both a 70-200mm Canon L Series and a Canon 50mm f/1.8.

Normally I use the 50mm for music, live music and never for portraits really because it can be quite hard getting eyes sharp at f/1.8 and such but from now on I'll defo be using it more for this type of work.
