the night portraits

I love low-key photography and we had another opportunity to hone our skills this week at Photo Social. I much prefer black and white to colour for this type of portrait, it brings a rich luminescence and a wide range of contrasting tones.

We were using a large ring-flash provided by our wonderful tutor, Kate Green. It produced unusually sharp highlights in the eyes.

I've called this series of photographs. 'the night portraits' as to my mind they have a dream-like quality to them.
