First Headshots

Headshots webMy first attempt at Head-shots … my wife Linda introduced me to Jackie her hair stylist and bingo friend … Jackie was wanting some Head-shots

for herself and boyfriend Ben. One Saturday afternoon they arrived and four hours later and 300 plus images, my first model shoot was completed.

The images above are just a few that were shot that afternoon, using one soft-box, one umbrella, a Canon 1 D Mark II and one lens the Canon 70 – 200 2.8L IS.

A lot was learned from this shoot, as far as lighting, positioning, posing, interaction with models, along with what will and won’t work at the next model shoot.
