              [News] How Peter Hurley Shut Me Up (a lesson in jawlines)

              pet [News] How Peter Hurley Shut Me Up (a lesson in jawlines) Do you have have a lot of photographer friends? Well if you do then you will know what I’m talking about when I say that, we spend a lot of time arguing about techniques, lighting, gear and each other’s individual style/aesthetic. It’s all in the name of good fun and education. I’ve personally taken more than my fair share of pot shots at friend and fellow photographer Peter Hurley, while sitting across the bar or poker table. But he has shut me up with his lastest video, over on Scott Kelby’s, “Guest Blog Wednesday Featuring Peter Hurley”. In 15 short minutes Peter demonstrates what it means to accentuate your subject’s jawline in a portrait and I gotta say, it’s 15 minutes well spent. See sample pics below and watch the video here.


              Be Warned: after watching the video you will want to buy the The Art Behind The Headshot DVD. Proceed at your own risk!

                Haha I love this guy. Shabam! Boom! Holy smokes!
                Am getting closer and closer to spending the $300 on his DVD, I’m seriously starting to believe it could one day make me five times the money I’d spend on it.

              • Robert Simpson

                Incredible! Peter has a way about him that makes you want to grab your camera and SHOOT!

              • http://twitter.com/the_rts Toby Rhind-Tutt

                Couldn’t agree more. Love his style, simple, informative, and the before and afters really do highlight how important this is. I can feel this revolutionising my style.

              • joundphil

                This guy is just awesome. I think his DVD will be my next investment. (Yes, I called it investment!)

                oh yeah…. he da man…..

              • http://twitter.com/jasongaskins Jason Gaskins

                This is nothing new. It’s simply having your subject lean their head forward to “turtle” their neck out more and thus accentuate the jaw line. This is like portrait photography 101. Not sure what the fuss is about. 

              • ajmills

                I thought “shyeah, right” about the warning wanting to buy the DVD – but I am hooked, I want to buy it now…

                I do wanna buy this now, like I REALLY wanna buy this now!

              • http://www.facebook.com/martinpbooth Martin Booth

                The DVD is on my list for when we get back from our big holiday in May, has been since it came out!

              • http://twitter.com/MorningRoad Joop van Roy

                With all due respect, who the hell would pose anyone like the ‘before’ pictures?

              • http://WWW.LIFEASCINEMA.BLOGSPOT.COM SEAN SHIMMEL

                In a furiously busy world, such a worthy 15 minutes.

                (and I’m already growing the 5 oclock shadow and letting my hair curl)

              • http://www.facebook.com/ppalaima Paulius Palaima

                You would be surprised how many people do that. 

              • noamgalai

              • http://www.facebook.com/omegaman9 Cendino Temé
