I was his official portrait photographer. I used to shoot with hot lights. That was a 2 second exposure. When I told him to hold still, there was never movement seen in the image.
Wow...
Wonderful shots and subject Gary. I recently entered a small club portrait competition... this would have blown the whole field out of the water I reckon.

Learning to light is everything. I used to do group portraits at country clubs and used to be able to do photos of over 40 people at once -- all with their eyes open!
These are incredible Gary, excellent control from the subjects as much the photographer. How long had you been shooting portraiture by the time you photographed the first image?
Thank you for answering. I don't profess to tell a gifted beginner from a seasoned eye, but I've noticed my own progress as a photographer, feel those on this forum who've been watching the world through the lens for a while share some truly inspiring images.
I hope to produce a portrait like these in my lifetime.
