Here I will post some updates about what I am up to along with some photos and general information about the life of a photographer.

Kent Portrait Photography

Just 8 shots from the 99 image gallery provided to this client for what was a portrait shoot for social media and website images.

I can't help myself, I am also probably the worst businessman there is, above are 8 images from a gallery produced for this client of 99 images, this was a website and social media shoot that became a little more, I really can't help myself sometimes and if I am there doing the head shots, why not do a few more different styles?

Anyway, in business these days it pays to present a human image rather than the bog standard head & shoulders in a suit, in fact presenting yourself and a true interpretation of who you are and what your personality is the way forward, lets face it why trust someone just because they have a suit and sit in an office, many of the directors and CEO's I shoot are dressed very casual expressing that human side and it's not just because of the position in the company, so perhaps casual is the new power dressing.

This shoot cost the client a total (no VAT to add) of £225 and she gets two sets of images, one set of high resolution files that can be printed as canvas or blown up to poster size and another all web ready, all edited one by one.

If you are looking for that special portrait especially with Christmas coming, then why not give me a call to discuss your needs. 

Busy week Teaching and taking bookings

This week, as I mentioned in my previous blog post has seen me Teaching photography at Tonbridge School, we have so far covered Film photography, Creating contact sheets with various exposures to each film strip to decide the best time for the prints, and today we will be printing some 8x10's, in addition we have also shot to Digital SLR's and printed on Dye Sub printers and included some Photoshop work.

I have also taken a new instruction from a product supplier for handbags and luggage, more from Lecente, another wedding, a family portrait shoot, a pre wedding shoot, and a maternity shoot, and tonight I will be covering an event for the University of Kent in Gillingham.

All in all a busy week concluded by a rehearsal with my Band on Sunday night after a wedding fair at Salomons in Tunbridge Wells, so I think I may turn up to 11!
