Recent Studio Work

Since moving my studio from Pine Mountain to Columbus 18 months ago, I find I spend more time teaching studio photography than actually practicing it.

Here's a recent headshot of Mark Stephen Willis, 2 yrs old, from LaGrange.

A Not So Terrible two. Cute huh?

See more of Mark Stephen here.

My studio technique is deceptively simple and is stylistically more like advertising photography than traditional portraiture. This headshot required two lights, a skilled assistant, lots of patience, and a willingness to make complete fools of ourselves.

Great to hear from John Pyle, a star student from one of my studio classes last year. From John: "Tremendous class, it really broke down the barrier for me with jumping from natural light to strobes!

John's work is showcased in his blog and on his website:

Good luck John!

Keep an eye out for my studio classes next fall:
