Vancouver headshot photographer

try getting really close.

stock photographer Vancouver

I shoot a lot of stock photos for AGE Fotostock, 

so I'm always looking around for possible subjects.

I was passing a cemetery on Pender Island and 

I noticed the sun angling through the trees, creating

shafts of light falling on the crosses.  I used spot 

metering on the crosses and darkened the photos a bit

in Photoshop so that the crosses really stand out.

Like Galen Rowell, I try to follow the light 

and sometimes you find something good there.

I also thought of Ansel Adams' classic photo of 

Hernandez. I think the more I store those old 

references away, the more helpful the masters are

in inspiring my own shots.
