Elizabeth’s Headshots
With a massive number of shoots over the last few weeks I have so many things to post, and I hardly know where to start. So, I am going to go straight for a shoot I did yesterday for the amazing Elizabeth Cairns.
We had the most amazing headshot session, mainly in Gunnersbury Park. I used to go to school just around the corner from here, so it was a trip down memory lane for me. It was a very sunny day, and I usually like to be able to have far more control over my headshot lighting. However, I was up for the challenge. Elizabeth’s brief was for some natural shots in a place where she feels she’d be at her best – namely out in the open. Elizabeth runs a very successful life coaching company called Amovita and so the images needed to portray happiness and positivity.
She was so easy to photograph and made my job positively simple. I think we managed the brief, so here are my faves from the session:
I am loving the mix of colours and vibrancy in these images. I haven’t had so much laughter in a shoot for ages! Hope you like them, Miss Cairns, and looking forward to seeing you soon!
lovely lovely photos Matt, – great to see some taken outside, and Elizabeth looks wonderful and relaxed and having fun, – especially like the black and white shot of her laughing and the sparkly background shrubs.
Wow! You really have captured Elizabeth at her best. Having worked on her website and blog I can’t wait to get these up there – they are so different to anything she has at the moment! Well done Matt and Liz, you should be very proud. They look amazing!
Thank you for the lovely comments ladies … Claire, I think you’re next !!
Ah thanks for lovely comments ladies, needless to say i’m delighted with the shots thanks Matt! It was such fun. You all know how much I hate being in front of the camera but Matt made it a breeze. He is not only a stunning photographer, handling the challenges of lighting like a pro, but has a unique skill at the essential rapport building necessary to bring out the essence of his subject. We had such a laugh my face ached! See you all at the Horseley Business Network tonight. Keep up the great work Matt!
