faces of mining

My “Signature” Underground Portrait| Sudbury Mining

I captured this portrait of Don Toporowski for his profile (and other uses) after we finished with our creative photography session for RockMass Technologies.

Some factors I consider when creating these profile portraits:

– I tend to capture them horizontal to show the surrounding environment if used in other media besides a profile

– I leave enough space so the image can be cropped vertical for profile templates

– use lighting from background equipment (when possible) &drag the shutter for the exposure.

– Capture the smiling, serious and in between facial expressions (all have their uses).

This is what I call my “standard portrait” and after setup will only take a few seconds to capture a few portraits like this.

Thanks Don and the rest of the crew at RockMass for that opportunity to create.
