My 99% Guidelines
z Direct the eyes with your hand z Remember the meaning of
z Direct the expression with your voice photography and tell different stories
about each subject
z Look at the eye and mouth expression
before tripping the shutter z The eye closest to the camera is
usually the high eye
z Match the color of the clothing to the
background z Photograph a variety of eye
involvements
z Photograph 30% - 40% of your images
horizontally z Remember the heart can’t desire what
the eye can’t see
z Photograph a variety of expressions
and facial views z Avoid direct front facial views
z Photograph key left and right z Eyes follow the nose and come slightly
back toward the camera most of the
z Add a red background to spice up time
customers portfolio
z Photograph a variety of poses from
z Remember we see horizontally so extreme close-up thru full-length with a
include horizontal images variety of expressions
z Never judge what a customer can z Two-zee rule ● Anything there are two
afford to pay of should be at different heights i.e.
z Know what story you want to tell Hands eyes ears etc
before you trip the shutter z Male and heavy subjects look better in
z Be aware of what the subject does a “C” head tip and a No.-1 body
naturally position

Creation of a Custom Background

Photography process
z Photograph in raw mode and use a wide angle lens… If possible convert file
in 16 bit mode
z Photograph at a normal standing view… Look for areas that have depth and
few light traps…
z Compose scene so background area is about 60% and foreground area is
40%
z Lighting… Photograph when the light is defused and a subject can be
photographed key left and right... If camera has a contrast control set it to
it’s lowest contrast
z All objects that are vertical, other than grass must be in the background
area otherwise it will appear flat...
z If you don’t have a wide angle lens... With the camera in a horizontal
position and on a tripod Take an image of the background area then pan the
camera to the floor area and take a second picture... Make sure both
images overlap so they can be merged together...
© Bill Abey 2004

Creation of a Custom Background In PhotoShop ce
Open image in PhotoShop… Open Rulers • View - Rulers
z Crop image to 8”X12 “ @ 260 - 300 DPI
z Duplicate layer and make and image adjustment levels layer to refine color &
density balance
z Duplicate background name retouch and correct light traps and darken
foreground about 25%
z Duplicate layer and run filter-artistic-dry brush fade to 15-28%
z Duplicate layer & run filter-Color Effects Pro-Sunshine and fade to 15%
z Create a new Canvas size 8”x17” @ 260-300 DPI…
z Move the image so the base of the background area is at the 10” line… Make a
selection of the background and do and edit-transform-distort… Pull the center
up till the background is a full 10’height
Note doors should be 7” high…
Do the same with the floor area or make a selection of the floor and do a copy &
paste to fill in the balance of the floor
z Save the file and then flatten and save the flattened image and save as a
different name tiff file.
z Send both files to Denny for printing
