2009 Challenge, day 316: The Photographer

Posted on by

Today is Thursday, November 12th, 2009. Today’s theme for the 2009 Challenge is THE PHOTOGRAPHER.

Yes, yes, I know we’ve done several self-portraits so far. This one is different. I promise!

What I want you to do is plan, set up, and execute the taking of the best professional headshot, of yourself, that you can create.

If you have off-camera lights, use them! If you like using available with some bounce, use it! Do whatever you need to, to create a great personal headshot.

Once you’re ready to submit your work to Flickr, you’ve got to do two important things. First, make sure you tag your photos correctly; “2009challenge” and “2009challenge316“. Also, if you haven’t already, join the PhotoChallenge group on Flickr. Then, submit each day’s photo to the group’s pool.

About Steve Troletti

I'm a Location Scout, Editorial, Nature, Wildlife and Environmental Photographer based in Malibu, California. I specialize in Nature and Urban Nature photography including Infrared Landscapes. The Bulk of my work takes place in the Los Angeles, California area, Greater Montreal Region, Canada, Switzerland, France and Varese in Northern Italy. Ethical wildlife photography is the main priority and focus of my work. A minimum disturbance of the animals, their habitat and the environment is my top priority. This applies as much to total wilderness areas as it does to urban nature environments. Ongoing education of environmental issues and building awareness for the protection of wildlife and wilderness areas around the world is what drives me to document the beauty that surrounds us.
