 Lighting
Techniques for Middle Key Portrait Photography Norman Phillips, author of Lighting Techniques for High Key Portrait Photography and Lighting Techniques for Low Key Portrait Photography, examines a much over-looked area of photography: the middle key. As Phillips shows, the fact that many photographers ignore middle key as a way of structuring their images results in portraits that may be cluttered or be visually confusing because elements of the scene, subject, clothing, props, and lighting are actually at odds with each other. By approaching these images with the concept of middle key in mind, it becomes much easier to avoid common errors and produce images with greater impact. Usually £23.99 Now £15.00 |

Jerry Ghionis - Speakers’ Corner I was obsessed with photography after I was given my first camera at the age of 15. After completing high school in 1990, I started a four-year photography course and quit after a year as I was tired of teachers trying to teach me to save the world with one photograph. In 1994, at the age of 20, I married Georgina who was 18 at the time. After working at a few camera retail stores I approached a popular studio in Melbourne and offered to work for no pay on weekends and did so for the next year. Later they made me studio manager and principal photographer. By 1997 I was ready to spread my wings and start my own business. XSiGHT Photography has become one of Australia’s largest and most respected studios. My biggest reinvention to date has been the launch last year of my new boutique studio in the prestigious Docklands precinct of Victoria Harbour in Melbourne. Here we cater for discerning clients who demand only the best. Read more... http://swpp.co.uk/professional_imagemaker/speakers_corner/jerry_ghionis.htm |
