With so many photographers spawning in all metropolitan cities across the globe, the competition can be fierce, making it difficult to stand apart from the swarm. Perhaps this is why photographers have traditionally relied heavily on the importance of personal contacts i.e. referrals to land gigs. This is still largely true of how photographers get hired, however technology - namely the internet, has given photographers direct access

Jay Morgan posted this video demonstrating the building of a comic book super heroine concept shoot. He describes the building of all the different lighting elements that create the finished product. It's educational to see how the creative process works, and be reminded that a final piece often involves a lot of consideration that the naive eye will have no idea. This is work I'd love to do, but who has time to do this and not be paid

It's nice to see this in action with a real model and in real space. Watch the video to hopefully take be on your way to taking better , more interesting portraits! The eyes tell it all... and you'll love the ending!
