THE PORTRAIT SESSION

Peter has the ability to make his subjects feel at ease whether they are being photographed against a studio backdrop or in an environmental setting. The result is a natural, relaxed look within a work of art.

What makes his work original and unique is his eye for composition, the interaction of light with the subjects and the relationship to their surroundings.

Whether it's a pure windowlight classic or a stylized studio setting, the result is elegant.

Peter's environmental portrait specialty frees him from the standard studio approach, inspiring him to create an original artistic piece which has relevance to the person being photographed.

It may be in the client's home - in their favourite reading nook by the window; the grounds around their home; a beach; along their special walking path in the woods in the autumn; anywhere that is special to them.

The pre-shoot consultation typically includes the scouting of possible locations with the client, as well as discussing wardrobe and other details.

A 'studio' portrait using a canvas backdrop can also be created in the home, in the subject's familiar surroundings.
