Keeping Fit Cycling in Scotland

Photographing Bonamy and Naa Shika cycling on Roslin Path, Midlothian. We experimented with a slow shutter speed and off camera flash, the weather wasn't great but that didn't stop us.
I think poor weather makes me more creative with ideas. Needless to say cycling is a great way to keep fit and get around.

What do you think?

Scottish Portrait Photography

Photographing portraits in the Scottish countryside. It  is a rare thing to get such good summer weather in Scotland so I am making most of the opportunity to practice ideas for portrait photos. here my model assistant is dressed in a Scottish fashion theme, styled by Claire. Keeping portrait photography techniques simple is the best formula for successful images. Just natural light and a reflector for a wonderful beauty light.

Portrait Photography In a Midlothian Garden

I am making the most of the current warm weather we are having in Scotland. This time working on fashion portrait ideas with my photography assistant in a garden near Loanhead, Midlothian. Always fun to practice image making techniques that will be useful for portrait and wedding events, so more of the panorama montages.
Again the best type of lighting for a flattering portrait is back lighting and a soft fill from a reflector or off camera flash for a punchy image.
