Hi I’m Brian…

I love to help people create better images. Ask me for help and training to use your camera, flash or photo software. I work with individuals and companies, who book me for online and face-to-face 1-2-1 training , workshops and technical articles.

p4pictures.com is the place to find a solution to your photo problems. I’ve spent over 20 years building my knowledge. This means I convert the many pages of instruction manuals in to practical, better ways for you to make pictures.

Stuck with a burning question? #askBrian

The weather has turned colder and now I’ve got plans afoot for a return to more cool shoots with My Little Goth. Already hatched the plan for a group portrait shoot with an ice queen vibe. This is how we fared last time

The light was beautiful and the birds awesome, though not sure this Ruff would say it’s name fits it, awesome bird.
Many thanks to Nick Wilcox-Brown @nick.wilcoxbrown for the invite and to my buddy Steve Gunn @stevegunn77 for tagging along and giving me loads of help identifying the birds we saw.

Around the margins of the water was this rather good looking Lapwing that even wandered closer to the hide than most of the other waders.

Captured this Godwit on my recent visit to Slimbridge. My EOS R10 did well even with the comparatively heavy lens, AF would just follow these wading birds locked on to the eye.

Rugged and chilled, perfect pose from Matt and ideal to add some grunge with post processing to accent the textures in the wall of the old factory

Truly epic fashion shoot with Sainey in a wheat field. Just love the drama of the pose and the tones of the scene.

Using a tilt-shift lens it's all easy to go to the extremes of tilt and shift for the effect, but invariably moderation provides better results. Fro this picture of Frankie, just a few degrees of tilt, and all the manual focus aids the EOS R6 can provide is the way that I get better results from my TS-E 90mm f/2.8 lens. Especially when handheld and working with people. ⁣.

A change of season as September starts. Always magical to have Xanthe Rose in front of my camera too.

Wildflowers and beautiful Emma is one of my favour

Wildflowers and beautiful Emma is one of my favourite photo recipes. Simply combine both ingredients, max out the bokeh for great results even in overcast conditions
