\"Portrait<\/a>

Sinister<\/p><\/div>\n

I was recently in London to see a Wedding Photography client. Whilst there I thought I’d meet up with my good friend and sometimes unpaid assistant Will Graham<\/a> and do a quick visit into the city for some impromptu portrait photography…\u00a0<\/p>\n

Will and I are taking part in a fashion photography shoot in Central London in a few weeks and so wanted to scope out a few locations that we could take our models to. We started off at St Dunstan in the East Church Garden near Monument. The best way to see if a location will fit your needs is to grab a few photographs and see what works – so as I got my camera and flashes out, Will slowly resigned himself to the fact that he’d be modelling in the not too distant future \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

Will Graham - Black & White<\/p><\/div>\n

This photograph was one of my initial ‘sighter’ shots. Using a single Canon 430EXII flash off to the left of me (to Will’s right), triggered with my Pocketwizards, all I needed to do was underexpose the overall scene to negate the 3pm sun, then the Pocketwizards controlled just the correct amount of light needed to illuminate Will.<\/p>\n

The shot at the top of the post was the one which I finished off with – the light on Will was exactly the same as before, but I added a second flash to the bottom right of the scene, fitted with a red gel to add a slightly sinister colour tone to the gravestone.<\/p>\n

Will we be going back in a few weeks? Now that would be telling!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
