Milky
Way Portrait - a couple came to me wanting to do a baby announcement. I
have before taken a photo of the Milky Way after capturing the Comet
Neowise. I asked if they were interested in attempting to be in portrait in front of the Milky Way in one exposure.
Took multiple attempts and me making the custom bird cage with the
right amount of light. What you see here is with very little editing.
The location now has a barn. I now have two other locations: a field and
a landscape with a small white church.There are only a limited amount of nights this type of photo can be taken:Spring
and fall; during the summer it never gets completely dark; the moon
can’t be the sky at night as it washes out the stars; also no clouds or
haze. Message me if you are interested in participating in the creation of such an image before your eyes.
Here are some important questions you may want to ask, as they should know the answers without hesitation.
Q: How are you different than other photographers in the area?
Q: What inspires you about being a photographer?
Q: What is your process from booking to delivery and beyond?
Q: Can I see full client galleries of your work?
Q: What kind of photo editing is included?
Q: What are your posing directions?
Q: How do you backup and protect my photos?
Q: Are you a registered business and insured here in Germany?
I don’t offer RAW files.
Why, because it’s like going to a restaurant and asking to buy only the ingredients.
The raw file is, just that - just like raw food.
I take this raw file and then modify the file to be my image with my look and style.
I crop, straiten, white balance, color grade, and retouch the images to the scene and/or individual image for visual impact.
My aunt in Italy makes a Pasta with Tomato and Pine Nut sauce, that no one in my family can replicate. Even though they buy the same ingredients from the same place and have watched her make if many time just can’t make it taste the same and stopped trying.
Giving or selling folks my raw’s is not on the table!
