| p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Patience - Portraits of World Champion Madison Rowley | |
I shared one of my photos of Madison here a couple of months ago, but Madison is someone that I have photographed many times over the last 6 years and I wanted to share some of our work from previous shoots as well. As you can see, he makes an incredibly interesting portrait subject and I love seeing the change in his beard length through the different shoot's we've done. As for the title of "World Champion", Madison is a two-time overall winner of the World Beard and Mustache Championships, for obvious reasons.
All of these were shot using the same original Canon 5D which has been my main shooter since 2011 and is still my only camera. I'm sure I'll be replacing it soon enough, but it has been such a reliable powerhouse of a camera for me, so why fix what isn't broken? I hope you enjoy the shots. Madison is one of my favorite people to work with and these are some of my favorite photos in my portfolio.
The first shoot was lit using a window. The lens used was a Canon 135mm f/2L (a lens that was fun to use but I eventually sold it after deciding that my 85mm f/1.8 lens got the exact same job done with so much more versatility and for a lot less money).
Our second shoot was also lit using all natural lighting. The reflective buildings allowed for some very interesting natural light scenarios that I was happy to take advantage of. I also used a Canon 135mm f/2L lens for this shoot.
Our third shoot was done in studio using all studio lighting. I had my Canon 85mm f/1.8 lens attached for this shoot.
Our most recent shoot was done using a mixture of natural and artificial lighting (window and a constant ring light with a gold filter).
This one from the same shoot was lit using all natural light through a large window. The weather conditions were overcast making for ideal soft lighting.
