p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · A Distinguished Man

This is James, a model in his 50's who hasn't let age stop him from smoldering for the camera. Beauty doesn't fade for everyone, I guess.

The indoor shot was taken in James' home, and the close-in shot was taken outdoors in downtown Portland. For both photos I used natural light with a silver reflector for fill light.

Both are excellent Daniel but liking #2 much!
"Executive" looking and dressed to the "nines"! A rarity now in many jobs!

(1) is super strong, and could easily be a movie poster.

(2) not really sold on the pose... but I like the perspective and setup.

Well done! Love the 2nd shot the most. His suit fits him well. Thanks for sharing.

Excellent Daniel. I would expect to find both of these shots in GQ magazine.

BTW, I really appreciate the fact that you post images that serve as both inspiration and the study of photography. Images really do tell a story.

Cheers,

Greg

I enjoy both images, Daniel although I prefer the first more! I am not a fan of a light source (or strong fill) coming from below but somehow it works for the first image.

Thank you Gheller.

I agree with you on the pose. In hindsight I wish I had paid a little better attention during the shoot and had him strech his neck and body just a little bit more. To me he looks hunched, and it creates an uneasiness in his body language that contradicts the power effect of a fitted suit. In the moment I was a little too excited about the lighting and the location and as a result I overlooked this important detail.

Wow, thank you so much Greg!

I often feel quite insecure about my images and really appreciate that comment.

Good self critique. You had every right to be stoked on the venue and lighting... they are excellent!
