Evan 2010

Evan is one of our favorite subjects, and it has become an annual tradition to make a series of portraits of him. I hope this continues for may years. Evan's mom always wants something a little different every year. This time we went with a combination of hard key and soft fill with a kicker on the hair. The black background and black turtle neck renders the classic floating head composition. I think it really a accentuates his strong facial features.

High Dynamic Range

High Dynamic Range (HDR) is a techique that involves making multiple exposures of a scene while varying the exposure values, then combining the resulting images using tone mapping software. You can get some pretty interesting results like this one that I shot from the watch tower over our family beach house at Edisto on new years eve.
