Amy Daniels Musician & Vocalist, Album cover portrait shoot.
Leicester Artist Photoshoot
An Instagram message popped in from a local singer songwriter called Amy Daniels.
Amy was in the final stages of launching her debut album, and needed some images for the front and back covers of the CD and for herwebsite, social media etc.
Amy set up a Pinterest board with images she wanted to take inspiration from. Once I had those I put a plan together to get her all of the required images, and a few more. I hired a local photography studio which I’ve used on a few occasions where I need multiple creative options. As for backgrounds, we had black, white, wood panels, plants… As for the lighting I kept it quite simple with only 1 or 2 lights and a simple reflector used sparingly
As usual I shot tethered to my laptop so Amy could see how the shots were taking shape, she could then also offer creative input to tweak the shots to her own personal preference.
I absolutely love creative shoots like this, it’s stretches my imagination and lets me experiment to get some pretty unique results.
