PortraitsAs I grow and fine tune what I am doing with my photographic career I am learning to create boundaries for myself as well as others and use my strength to seek the work I am passionate about.
That in itself is a whole other dissertation. I will focus only on the current relevant point though.
I have stopped offering business head shots against a boring muslin background. Why, because I find it very boring when I can create the same clean and distinct effect by using my natural environment. This is more of a challenge for me and much more exciting because each shot inevitably looks different. At the same time I get to work with natural light and mix in what I need to sculpt my subject as it needs to be. This is what I like to do.
To take this a step beyond I also do the shot the client needs, a straight forward headshot but I also create the one I would want to include in my portfolio. Usually an environmental portrait. This is my recent favorite of a lady I photographed last week.
