Christmas!

Well it's nearly Christmas and today we're finishing off some editing here in the edit suite with our clients from The Cabinet Office and we've also got some final retouching to do on some product photographs for a lighting company called Ceravision. Once that's all done we're breaking up for Christmas and we all feel ready for the break.

It's been a very busy year once again and we've moved the business along a great deal from where we were a year ago. Our turnover has been about the same but we've reduced our overhead substantially and we've also moved to a more modern office here in Milton Keynes.

We now have two websites to reflect the different sides to the business - one to showcase our video production work (www.redshift-media.co.uk) and one to highlight our architectural photography (www.redshift-photography.co.uk). We are also about to launch a new print sales website featuring our photographer David Thrower's personal work and the prints on sale will be ideal for boardrooms and meeting rooms etc. The site is still being built and the web address is www.davidthrowerphotography.co.uk so please check back in a couple of weeks and let us know how it looks.

Last week we took some pictures in our pop up studio of an up and coming model and actress called Georiga and here's a few of our favorite pictures from the shoot.

Considering this was her first time in front of the camera we think she did really well and shows some great promise.

For the technically minded reader we used three Bowens 500 heads to light Georgia and a Canon EOS 5d MK2 with Voigtlander 90mm f3.5 manual focus lens to capture the images. The workflow is then Lightroom for Raw conversion, Photoshop CS6 for additional retouching and the final colour profiling was done with DXO Filmpack.

We'd like to take this opportunity to thank all our clients for their support again this year and to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!.

See you in 2016!.
