Everything is Changed Everything is Still the Same

A couple of weeks ago before my house was ripped apart by the builders and I had access to the famous Garden Studio I took some actor headshot pictures of Holly Marsella. She is an up and coming actress who has appeared in plays at Hampton Court and for the Goat and Monkey Theatre troop. If you click on the link to Goat & Monkey you will see some work I did with them. (Hey,I took that shot too!)

One of the things I liked about Holly is her Debra Winger like ability to look different in a lot of poses. We were able to do six scenes. Three outdoor shoots with a really nice 85mm lens and three indoor shoots in the studio with a variety of lenses and lighting set ups.

Sometimes two lights, sometimes three and sometimes one. I really like working with one light and maybe a couple of reflectors, it is amazing how responsive these reflectors are. You do not always see there worth with the eye and not always in camera but when processing and up there on the HD screen the difference is really noticable. One light helps push the creative urges too.

If you check out the headshots page then you may get to see what I mean.
