I had a friend come in recently to ask if I could help him create a birthday gift for his wife. But it wasn't for the usual portrait. He presented me with a photograph of Sting and asked if I could recreate this image using himself. You see, he resembles a young Sting and his wife is a fan of Sting so he thought it would be a nice idea to frame the two along side each other and give it to her for her birthday. What a fab idea. I think you can see for yourself that he does indeed look a little like Sting.
So we set out to create the image. It was a fun challenge because I always love looking at images and figuring out how they were lit. Its not as simple as you might imagine to be so precise as I have been here. I think I nailed it to be honest though and I learned a little something in the process.
I like to think my business is not just about one particular style or genre. I understand lighting and how to apply it in various scenarios. So I can handle just about any request.
If you have a unique request I'd love to hear it. You can reach me on 01455 611069 or visit our website at www.christinalauderportraits.com.
