Photographing people commercially for advertising and publication has it's own unique challenges. Often I am given an assignment with specific instructions but quite often a lot of creative input of my own is necessary. I have to find or create a nice setting that works for the person being photographed without being distracting. I also have to be able to put people at ease, and get the job done in a reasonable time period. Because I am shooting digitally, I can do a lot after the shoot to enhance the image, and my delivery can be as quick as an internet upload.
