RF 28-70mm F2L USM lens fitted to EOS R6 camera

RF 28-70mm F2L USM “the big beast from the East”

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

I thrive on questions, as they provide a way for me to help you. Answering questions here helps other photographers too.

One of the first pictures I took after getting the light right. Once again My Little Goth is simply amazing with such a stunning face. Here I used a Lastolite / Manfrotto Halo diffuser with a hard light behind it as the only light. Those old Hollywood movie guys knew a thing or two about light that works and looks superb.

Alex was a model for a recent client shoot. My first time to work with him and it won’t be the last. What a great look, and great on set. The actual shoot only needed partial views of Alex as he interacted with various products, but I grabbed these shots at the end of the day. EOS RP with RF 24-105mm F4L IS USM

2022 starts anew with absolute luck, must be celestial alignment or something. Fabulous new model Savilenessa to photograph, EF 85mm f/1.4L IS USM to try out and what a beautiful - if cold - day in a quiet Oxford city.

And so another year starts…

Nothing better than a good book 📕 Damn I’ve missed seeing and making pictures with Xanthe Rose since March 2020, which was when we did our last workshop together at the old Canon office in Reigate.

Well this was a fine way to return to modelling. Ann had modelled some years ago, but thought that the time was right for a return to a photo studio and the modelling end of a camera. She was very quickly back in to it and poses flowed as we worked through a number of setups and outfits.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

What a great morning for a shoot in the local woods. I'd gone to get some shots of Maia running amongst the carpet of bluebells, and I think we achieved that and more.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Even better when you're trying new camera gear and find something that just suits you fine. Here's a shot from my test shoot with the RF 28-70mm F2L USM, it impressed me so much I bought it.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

One of the pictures from a shoot where I realised that eye AF on the EOS R6 would change how I shoot pictures. In reality I now just compose the frame and let the camera find and focus on the subject for me. Even when using an absolute beast of a lens like the EF 85mm f/1.2L II USM as here.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
