I get a buzz out of seeing my photographs published. The most recent photo is in the KM online edition, but I have had my work featured in The Sun, The Mail Online, Metro as well as in other local magazines or papers.

This week saw a piece for a client, following a deal to acquire another business. This simple handshake photo image belies the work carried out on the editing. The original shot of the two men was against a blank wall and with a bit of judicious editing I turned the background completely white. The background in the final photo was shot separately in natural light (that is, no use of flash or strobe lighting – just the ambient light. ) and then the two photos were merged together to create this image:

Adding backgrounds to photos can be carried out with relative ease if there original background is a uniform colour – it does not have to be green or blue – or even white. Costs for this type of work is dependent on the complexity of the images, but generally it is less that £30 per image.
