Main Content
My passion lies in crafting unique, personalised artwork that reflects your individuality and captures the essence of your personal story. Clients come to me driven by a desire to preserve cherished memories, express their personality, and receive high-quality images that resonate deeply with them. We aim to create a connection, resulting in art that speaks volumes about who you are.
The Vision Behind the Shot
This particular image features a subject with a fair complexion and striking, androgynous features, holding a captivating gaze directly at the camera. Their slightly parted mouth and sultry expression convey immediate intrigue. Long, wavy, dark hair cascades beautifully, complementing the dark, form-fitting top that accentuates their figure. Defined eyebrows, smoky eyeshadow, and a glossy lip add to the contemporary and captivating presence. The indistinct background intentionally keeps the focus entirely on the subject, allowing their expression and style to dominate the frame.
Client Experience & Value
A session with Gary Wallage Photography is a personalised, guided experience. We believe in a collaborative approach, from initial consultation and careful location scouting (considering lighting and weather) to subtle direction during the shoot. The goal is always to create a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere, allowing for spontaneity while ensuring we achieve the desired artistic vision. The core benefits you receive are unique, high-quality images that truly reflect your personality, a comfortable and empowering experience, and tangible artwork that preserves your moments in a creative, artistic way. If you value uniqueness, authenticity, and have an appreciation for art and storytelling, you’ll find a perfect fit here.
Technical Approach
This image was captured using a Canon EOS 5D Mark IV paired with an EF50mm f/1.4 USM lens, a versatile combination excellent for portraiture. Settings included an aperture of f/6.3, a shutter speed of 1/50th of a second, and the base ISO. The choice of f/6.3 allows for a good balance of subject sharpness and background separation, while the shutter speed was sufficient for a sharp image without motion blur. Captured likely in the late afternoon in Gloucester, England, the potential for soft, diffused natural light played a role in creating the mood. Incorporating elements associated with genres like boudoir and glamour allows for a specific artistic direction and desired result.
