When DK Capture have portrait clients in I always have a chat about what type of look they would like…99% don’t know and leave it to me.
We also shoot on High Key first as it’s what people are used to seeing, but after about 30mins I tend to go all creative and find most people like the results.
Is the brilliant white background going out of fashion or will it always be a favourite?
Photography is Marketing..its not some grey haired old bloke with a tripod eating sandwiches out of tin foil boring people to death about FStops and then charging a small mortgage to allow you to use his images…things have changed!
Looking at the two images below, the first I found on the web, whilst looking for a description on the process of dried apricots for a design we are doing. The second is a shot DK Capture did for a food company looking to market their product further.
If you sold dried fruit which one is going to sell your company?
If your investing your hard earned money into a company you love and breath, why wouldn’t you invest in marketing your company properly?

A funny comment I saw on FB today….
“wow you take nice photos… Of course that great camera helps”
“yes and you make nice cakes, of course you have a wonderful mixing bowl”
We have all seen “The Hangover” maybe some of us have seen “The Hangover 2″ (not as good but still funny) but what is the best bit about the film ?
Thats right the fun party photos at the end !
Well, I cant promise all the action from the movies but we do have plenty of fun and having booked in 3 party shoots last week for Hen and Birthday shoots , DK Capture must be doing something right.
I always ask how did they hear about our party shoots….because we don’t advertise them !
Friends of friends and word of mouth…do a good job people talk about it and they become sales people for your company.
Remember… Never too old to “Party Hard” !
When it comes to product photography, clients always ask you for your thoughts and ideas…99% of clients already have an idea but it’s always good to pop the kettle on and have a chat about what the overall outcome from the shoot will be….
You never know what goes on in these marketing meetings!
When it come to body modifications its very much down to personal taste.
DK Capture have shot many portfolio updates for White Flame in Winton for their online advertisement. Even if you don’t like tattoos you can’t argue some of the art work people have nowadays is amazing…and the photography isn’t too bad either

When DK Capture launch our “Its All About You” makeover shoots I didn’t think it would be as popular as it has been.
Well with everyone taking photos on their phones…and thinking it doesn’t look as good as the glossy mags I’ll get some professional ones done, it’s no surprise.
I like a rubbish camera phone makes us Pro Photographers look even better….It’s all about the lighting ;)

Its always good fun when we get dancers and dance groups in the studio. Single shots look great but when you put a few together they just have soo much more impact !
