One of the major problems with taking photographs inside is that you usually need a flash to illuminate the subject and if that subject is a person wearing glasses and you use an on board (the camera) flash then you often end up with reflections of the flash in the glasses which can obliterate the eyes of the subject. There are a couple of things you can do to reduce the affect:

1/ get the person to lift the arms of their glasses so that the lens are no longer parrallel to the camera, so reflected light goes in another direction rather than directly back to the camera.

2/ take the picture from a slightly different angle so that you are not firing the flash directly at the lens.

3/ tweak it in photoshop afterwards (last resort)

Number 3 really is the last resort but if you are careful and have a little bit of eye that you can clone from you can clone out the flash and then smooth it over with the healing brush. The 2 pictures below show the sort of nasty reflection you can get and how some of it can be removed in photoshop afterwards.

Then after a little work in photoshop they look like this:

Some of you are probably thinking you can get a friend or relative to take your boudoir or maternity photographs, yes you can, but I have heard many stories from people who are disappointed by the end result.  So why do we do it so much better than your friends or relatives?

1/We have all the right equipment for the job, including dark backdrop, studio lights and spares in the event of a problem.

2/ We make sure each photograph is correctly exposed, so we do not waste your time with unnecessary photographs.

3/ We are fully trained in how to take superb wedding photographs, I know how to you and get the best out of the lighting and you.

4/ We make sure that all the images when printed are colour corrected, i.e. make sure the skin tones are correct and that black and white prints are BLACK and WHITE and not with a hint of green or magenta as we see so often in home printed images.

5/ We have a vast array of poses that we can use to make for more interesting photographs, not just stand you in a line. We know how to use differential focus to make things more artistic and when to use a fast shutter speed to capture that moment in motion.

6/ We can supply the end result as a beautiful album or a CD/DVD with your picture printed on the front, to treasure for ever, that you will want to view time and time again, not just pass on a pile of 6×4 inch prints that end up curled up in a box for ever more, unloved and un-viewed.

7/ We are fully insured for public liability (in the event someone falls over  the equipment ) and we am fully covered for professional indemnity.
