Requiem

Requiem Illustration

This is another illustration for Mind Body Spirit Magazine. Here is my lovely wife. I shot her standing on her toes, then replaced the feet with another shot of her feet dangling to make her look like she’s floating. Solarised that layer to make it all a bit more ghosty. Found a couple of trees in my own library and with a little Photoshop magic I have another little fun illustration.

Another illustration for the partwork magazine Mind Body Spirit. I hired a friend’s daughter to come over and be a model, she did great, posed for several illustrations. I even gave her a sword which gave her a wicked look in her eye, I will do something with that shot one day. All made up in Photoshop.

This is a montage for a the part-work magazine Mind Body Spirit. Most of the images, including the chap I shot on a Pentax Z2. The model is a friend and client before he retired. I shot him under his porch light, a simple 60w bulb, probably on a 2 second exposure.

This is one of many books I have done for English Heritage over the last 20 years. It’s a few months of making the photos fit with their text in the flow of the book (usually 280-350 pages). Great client and a pleasure to work with great images where choosing what to feature on a spread is difficult because it’a all good. All done in Quark or InDesign.
