I&#8217;m Nick Tsiatinis, and I&#8217;m a Leicester Portrait Photographer. I originally got into photography towards the end of 2008, when I bought my first digital SLR camera. Originally I was focused purely on landscape photography, and had no interest in portrait photography. That changed one day when I went to a photographic convention and found myself taking part in a model photography session with a portable studio setup. I was hooked, and from there I went on to have a real affinity for Leicester portrait photography and model photography.<\/p>\n<p>My style is very much &#8216;creative lighting&#8217; using off camera flash and careful sculpting of natural light after being inspired by and trained by lighting legends such as Zack Arias and Damien Lovegrove. What I use depends entirely on what look I&#8217;m aiming for. Have a look through some of my portrait photography galleries to see what I can do.<\/p>\n<p>For someone who didn&#8217;t originally want to do portrait photography I&#8217;ve certainly been keeping myself busy with it over the past few years, with model shoots, corporate brochure shoots for companies such as Pantherella in Leicester and even being asked to photograph Dragons&#8217; Den&#8217;s Peter Jones at his office in London. I&#8217;ve been repeatedly published and featured in magazines, including a shortlisting in the top 10 of Practical Photography&#8217;s &#8216;Photographer of the Year&#8217; competition in the 2011 portraits round.<\/p>\n<div class=\"testimonial-container\"><h2>Marina Broadley<\/h2><span class=\"testimonials-details\">Counsellor \/ <a href=\"http:\/\/www.leicesterprivatecounselling.co.uk\/\">Leicester Private Counselling<\/a><\/span><div class=\"double-line\"><\/div><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-frame testimonial-img\" src=\"http:\/\/www.nickt.co.uk\/portraits\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/IMG_3614_pp_resized.jpg\" \/><blockquote><p>What can I say!
