Introduction: At Gary Wallage Photography, we believe in capturing more than just a likeness; we aim to capture the authentic spirit and unique story of each individual. This #authenticportrait session embodies that philosophy, focusing on genuine emotion and personal expression.
Main Content
This image captures a person with a contemporary, confident style. My work is driven by a desire to help clients preserve memories, tell their personal stories, and showcase their individuality. I strive for authenticity and emotional resonance in every photograph, emphasising self-expression and personal growth. My persuasive messaging always highlights the unique, personalised nature of the photography experience, focusing on capturing genuine, unposed moments in a safe, supportive environment. It’s about creating images that are empathetic, inclusive, and empowering.
The Vision Behind the Shot
An eye-level, medium shot captures a person with a sleek, dark, chin-length bob. Their face is softly illuminated, revealing a strong jawline and a composed expression. They are wearing a dark, sleeveless top that complements their fair skin tone. The background is indistinct, ensuring the focus remains entirely on the individual and their modern aesthetic. This approach aligns with a documentary-style perspective, focusing on capturing the subtleties of human emotion and interaction with minimalist styling.
Client Experience & Value
The core benefits of this photography genre include the creation of meaningful, heirloom-quality photographs that truly reflect your personality and spirit. You receive a supportive and non-judgmental experience from start to finish, resulting in a final product that is both aesthetically stunning and deeply personal. My sessions are relaxed and collaborative, focused on building trust and rapport to create a sense of warmth and authenticity, using available light and natural environments where possible.
Technical Approach
This shot was recorded with a Canon EOS 90D camera and an EF50mm f/1.4 USM lens, a combination chosen for its versatility. The aperture of f/1.4 allowed for a shallow depth of field, ensuring the focus is sharply on the subject and their expression, isolating them from the indistinct background. The natural light and wide aperture contribute to the intimate feel of the image. This particular image was captured during an afternoon shoot that took place near Chichester.
