I read a statement recently about technical vs creative aspects and it got me thinking. I’m at a point now where I feel I’ve moved away from producing just technically good images to making creative images. Having said all that, my general feeling about my work is still one of frustration. I consider myself quite competent with post processing. Yet, too often I’ve come back from a shoot with what I thought were sure keepers, only to find, after hours of frustrating pc time, that I can’t work the image to how I originally imagined it. I then fall into the “I must be a crap photographer if I can’t even do this” trap.

 

It only dawned on me recently that mastering the technicals is a moving target. It never ends. You learn enough to produce what you currently have in your head. If you cannot produce it, you go away and learn some more (and it applies to pros and amateurs alike). Sorry if this appears somewhat obvious to you. I’ve always known that you should never stop learning but I need reminding every now and then ;)

 

Anyway, this was one of those images which frustrated me before but now looks almost spot on to how I originally saw it in my head.

 

Shot near the Marienplatz in Munich, Germany. TGIF!

Finally found some time to process a few more shots from the Jake Hicks' Creatively Simple Lighting Workshop I attended earlier in the year.

 

This look was achieved by carefully balancing four studio lights with different coloured pastel gels.

 

I can thoroughly recommend the course to anyone who is interested in learning more about portrait photography, studio lighting and the secrets behind Jake’s signature coloured gel looks.

After over a year of trying, I finally managed to synchronise schedules with Jake Hicks and attend one of his informative photography workshops.

 

I can thoroughly recommend the day to anyone who is interested in learning more about portrait photography, studio lighting and the secrets behind Jake’s signature coloured gel looks.

 

Highly Enlightening.

Late yesterday afternoon, I worked on the 'official' Christmas

tree shoot. Sadly... by the time I got things more or less the way

I wanted them, that late afternoon blue through the windows

was all but gone. So while I like this well enough... I think I'm

going to have to reshoot another day... only start a little earlier

in the afternoon. Hmmm... and maybe I should put a few

presents under the tree as well.

 

Just a couple of months ago, we moved into this South Elgin, IL

townhouse, after living elsewhere for over 20 years (in the same

place). In the place we came from, everything was one shade of

warm beige or another... from the walls to the carpet. Yeah...

a little bland, but it made an easy backdrop for shooting the

Christmas tree. The darker green walls, darker wood flooring,

contrasted against the white ceiling, trim and crown molding

here is lovely... but I found it harder to shoot the tree against

all that 'dark and contrast'.

 

Am I saying I miss the beige? Nope! =) I'm just saying that

every shot has its... challenges. And there are a few here that

require a little more work from me... so... OK folks... consider this

a preview.
