I thought this would be a perfect opportunity to show:

• • How I work with, pose and frame two subjects for an image that will fit a wide aspect ratio (for a video channel)

• • How to light dark-toned clothes so that they stand out on a dark background

• • How I met the brief with three different images (one in-camera portrait, one composite portrait and one contrasting background portrait)

• • How I develop an image in Lightroom and carry out a full edit in Photoshop

• • The last thing I do in Photoshop to add the finishing touch and bring a composite together

For each portrait you’ll see my images straight-out-of-the-camera, with exposure settings and the final edit, too.
