Can anyone recommend a children’s portrait photographer, or a family portrait photographer near Sleaford? How many times do I see that message on the Facebook forums! Inevitably there is a list as long as the page of recommendations and the person who has written the post is faced with a bewildering list of options. “I…
I have recently been inspired a lot by the portrait paintings from the “Old Masters”, and have spent some time trying to incorporate it into my photography. After much thought , I realised some of the most elegant images I have ever seen are those of ballet dancers, and therefore they would be a good subject…
No photographer nowadays can afford to rest on their laurels when it comes to staying ahead of the game – there are so many new photographers flooding the market nowadays- especially here in Lincolnshire – that we have to do something special to make us stand out.

Yesterday on a rather grey and drizzly afternoon I did an outdoor portrait photoshoot with Melissa who is looking to build up her model portfolio. It works well for me as I am able to put into practise all the off camera lighting lessons that I am currently being taught by the Big Dog himself, Damian…
Yesterday I realised I needed to produce some model portrait images ready for my next mentoring session with Damian McGillicuddy. The project this time was to do something to illustrate high ratio and low ratio lighting. I know – that means nothing to most people!! However, what is does mean for anyone wanting a portrait…
