A few more recent shots

Good afternoon people. Just a quick blog update before I head out to shoot a stuntwoman for a book insert. The shoot is taking place at a local airport, where she will be posing with her airplane. Can't wait! To your left is one of the finished shots of actress Rachel Carnell. She didn't pick this for herself, I just loved it so much I thought it deserved ...

Recent work at London Headshots

Hi, been a while since my last blog update, and that's because I've been on holiday! Took a break with my girlfriend and visited Los Angeles for ten days. Reports suggest that it's the greatest country and greatest city I've ever been to in my life, and returning to London, or more accurately, London's prices was quite a downer. I did mention moving out there, but Mrs Godwin-to-one-day-be rightly pointed ...

Recent headshots session

  Good morning (3am here, 14 hour day today). Thought I'd post a quick shot from a recent headshots session I did. I tried some new lighting out in this shot, and I absolutely love how it looks.

What Makes A Good Headshot?

What Makes a Good Headshot? Let's face it, headshots can be pretty hit and miss. During a session, for every decent shot you take, there will be 50 before and after that just won't cut it. Your contact sheet of 500-1000 images might only contain 100 shots worth looking at, and only 20 you can realistically use on your spotlight/castingcallpro profile. From that 20 you would hope to get 10 excellent shots of you ...
