    Workshop Programme 2012

    As many of you who visit this page frequently perhaps already know we now have a website that is devoted to our Fine Art Nude work @  http://www.yerburygallery.com Here you will find all the information about our work, images available to purchase, workshops, seminars and speaking engagements etc. In addition I will be talking about our Platinum/Palladium images which we are currently working on and much, much more. This site will continue for the time being however we are currently having a new website developed which will showcase our portrait work, seminars and workshops etc. This we hope will go live in time for Focus on Imaging in March where we are delighted to again be speaking on the BOWENS and SWPP stands.

    Today’s image’s were made a week ago while we were being filmed by San Francisco film maker Anton Lorimer who jetted across the Atlantic for the session and flew straight back the following day. He has been filming Kevin Kubota in Bends Oregon, for the same project, this week. More on this exciting project later…….. Image made on my Hasselblad with a 150mm lens.

    What a start to the month, London, filming, Maltese and Aberdeen. More on all of this tomorrow.

    SWPP CONVENTION January 2012

    Faye and I have spent the weekend in the company of 10 fellow photographers judging the annual print awards and I must say that we are delighted with the results and look forward to see the looks on the faces of the winners as they are announced at the gala dinner on the Sunday the 15th of January at the Novotel in London. We are hosting 3 Super Classes, 1 of which sold out within day’s of it being announced back in August, but we still have a couple of places left of the remaining 2 classes. The Passion of the Portrait on Friday the 13th of January will cover some aspects of business, marketing and branding but will also demonstrate the simple lighting that we use in the majority of our portraits and the equipment that we use. The image below was produced in our small studio last week when we flew Jacinta over from Malta.  Lit with a simple Bowens head fitted with a soft box and Faye holding a small reflector camera left. Nothing fancy, nothing difficult just simple effective lighting. If you wish to see how this image was created and to reserve one of the few places remaining then please contact the SWPP directly.
