CANTERBURY CATHEDRAL CHOIR

Portraits of the choristers at Canterbury Cathedral
The requirements were for various group photos of the whole choir, and then some single groups with choirmaster David Flood plus some individual portraits, some staged and a few of the choristers singing. The images below show a mix of both, the chorister singing was lit with natural light with the aid of a reflector just under neath his chin to lift some light on his face and remove the shadows. The second photo was with a single off camera flash, been using this technique quite a lot recently, mainly due to the sun and also just to make some more dramatic portraits, the speed lights offer great flexibility plus they are extremely portable.
