Ethos Health shoot-Hunter Business Chamber

Ethos Health commissioned me to do their staff corporate portraits, for their new website which is under construction at this time.As ric woods photography are members we were an obvious choice.Aside from the quality of images we have provided for Newcastle's high end corporate sector the word is out that our genuine care for our clients makes us an easy choice.

They were holding a conference at the Newcastle Hunter Business Chamber, as all the staff were to be present this was the perfect opportunity to shoot everyone at once. Otherwise shooting the 40 plus staff would not be cost effective and it would require much more work arranging several sessions.

Access to the venue was available from 7.30am and we needed to be finished by 9.15 am for the start of the conference, setting up the day before was the order of the day. The shot list must be followed to provide a smooth photo session providing our client with a selection of images of the subjects including full length and head shot, continuity and consistent quality were as important as getting great faces from the staff.

Staff were instructed to show up with uniforms ironed make up and hair done.....and away we go......

We provide proofs to our corporate clients then they select their favourites and we then edit and provide some digital clean up where required...These proofs below of Mark are straight from the camera.








done by 9.15.........

Maree the ever helpful assistant

We were shooting some high key mono portraits of two brothers, the dappled sunlight was a problem, until I sent Maree upthe tree with a sheet of corflu, to gobo the sunlight.Note that she removes her shoes, sensitive to nature.

Variety is the spice of Life




We shot a family of 5 the other day...it was a hoot.Funny creatures...yes they were dogs.
I like the variations in my work..I get bored real quick. I used a Nkon D300 with my favourite lens 24-70 2.8.Great weather for natural images, soft light , no nned for reflectors or balanced flash.Maree has a telepathic ability with dogs...as well as some amazing sounds. I like this park , it reminds me of places in the country like bathurst.Its got shade,water,grass big trees, tables chairs etc..
