    Club Photography

    Eos JD, I understand what you mean and I'm not arguing either, with you or anyone else come to that. As others have mentioned they have their own ideas and preferences to enable them to get the results that they want. If we all did everything in exactly the same way then it would be a pretty...

    Club Photography

    Hmmmm well! he did say he wanted the atmosphere of the night. Yes we can all drag shutters and we can all expose for reasonable light levels and blast a subject with a flash but you do that at the expense of the atmosphere. I've made a lot of my living from taking pictures of stage shows and...

    Club Photography

    Using any flash at all will ruin the atmosphere, as you will light up your subject with white light and the effect created by the club's own lighting will be lost. So I'd put the flash off for the time being. A successful outcome depends on what kind of lighting is illuminating your subjects...

    tips on larger models?

    Well the answer lies in liquify more than anything you can do with lighting and angles. Fat is fat. I have shot thousands of overweight people and if you make them look just a little bit thinner they are happy. Liquify is your friend in this respect. Obviously, don't make obvious errors, like...

    is Wedding Photography necessary ?

    Well I doubt if this is going to go down well but I have done many weddings but I have now stopped doing them. I don't think people should pay anyone for their wedding photos anymore. Everyone who had a camera for Christmas last year is now a wedding photographer. They'll go out for nothing...

    My wife was mugged today!

    Sorry I should imagine that you must be so frustrated having to keep on arresting and releasing the same old offenders all the time. What I meant by the Police not being interested was probably a little simplistic a term to use. I think the police have so much to do with all this insane...

    My wife was mugged today!

    It is the decline of Britain today. There are subcultures emerging all over Britain where these yobs are basically feral. They have no respect for law and order, teachers or their parents if they have them. The Police don't seem interested and this reliance on CCTV is laughable. The...
