Expert business photo shoot

Clients coming to terms with the camera

Photographing Louisa Sando Patel in 2019 was just brilliant. Louisa will tell you she has a real problem in front of the camera. This is because she has had previous bad experiences with professional photographers. Many clients come to me with previous photo shoot experiences that have left them disliking how they look in photos. These are however often the result of photos dating back as far as childhood. These are usually undertaken by are friends and family members. These experiences can then travel with us for a lifetime meaning that accompany us to every photo opportunity and leave us ready to fail yet again. It was however very important for me on this expert business photo shoot to try and break this and we did just this. We actually talked through each frame, adjusting mouth position, eyes and all until we had closer to something truthful.

Documentary Photography

Part of my process of photographing is documentary capture whereby I will ask a client just to work, write in a note book, type etc. This ensures I can capture something more natural and of the moment without trying to stage it which never works.

Louisa was very happy with the results, has mixed these new shots into her existing website. I have seen these shots used all over Instagram, cropped with text over, maybe a little colour washing etc. These shots are vital and working all part of an expert business photoshoot.
