gurdusphoto.com: Event Photography

I record the important events in your life such as family parties, small weddings, birthday parties, office parties, meetings and other events. My style provides journalistic documentation of the special times in your life. I use natural means such as ambient lighting, varied locations and existing conditions to create this journalistic journey of events whether I am recording a special occasion or taking a portrait. I use my innate sense of composition, exciting angles, dramatic lighting and a personal connection with my subjects to evoke a certain expression or look I avoid touching up my work because, by doing so, I would be altering and disguising a person's real appearance. I bring to light what is actually there. Most of my photographs come directly from the camera without manipulation. I use natural light as well as indoor lighting but avoid those lighting situations that become non-flattering to the subject
