So with the world cup fast approaching, I'm focussing on several football themed shoots. I'll also be running a promotion on my PRO FOOTBALLER shoots, so if your kids are into football and you would like to see a portrait of them wearing their national colours for the world cup, get in touch.

In the meantime, here is another shot using my friend Luke as the model. The background is actually from AFC Bournemouth and you can see earlier blog posts that cover the details of this HERE. Where they have red seats like Wembley does, I was able to pull off the England theme.

As always, I'm setting up my key lights to hit the edges of the subject to help with the cutting out process in photoshop, but more importantly to blend the subject with any artificial or ambient light that are in the backgrounds.

Here is the before shot of Luke:

Here is the background prepped:

Here is the final composit:

I'm always working on different concepts, not just football or sports, so if you would like a portrait, or have a concept in mind, always feel free to get in touch with no obligation. I'm more than happy to discuss ideas.

Thanks for reading and have a great weekend!
