Portraits Graffiti

When it comes to photography, the images can either be dull and uninteresting or thought-provoking and amazing. This is especially true for striking portraits, which require a combination of ingredients to truly captivate the viewer. To keep your readers engaged, it's important to explore different angles within the story and have creative conversations with photographers. A well-composed and beautifully lit portrait can evoke strong emotions in the viewer, well composed, beautifully lit, visually uncluttered and that is until now!!This week, we are excited to announce that we will be using a new location for our portraiture shoot. Regardless of the weather, our new site is covered, and we are confident that you will be pleased with the top light effect created by its large skylights, but most of all the walls of the location are the best graffiti you will find anywhere in the city.As an added bounce we will also visit the Digbeth Community Gardens just up the road and off Shaw's passage Birmingham B5 5TH.
