Hello Ian. I am also new to the site and just looked through your portfolio. Very nice! I shoot corporate portraits professionally. I like the lighting you achieved of your brother-in-law, and the focus looks pretty crisp on the front of his face.

Hi Geoff, thanks for the comment. I will be sure to check out your profile as soon as I finish writing this reply. I just recently got into Headshot photography and I am loving it. any tips and critiques are always appreciated.

Very smooth shot Ian. All the colours work great.
After gazing at this for a time, I realized that the saying,
'He's head and shoudlers above the rest', is about stature.
By omitting his left shoulder, have you inadvertently left out part of how guys meet each other visually. Getting the 'measure of the man', so to speak. And this is the first time I've met your brother in law! :-)
That said, perhaps the camera near shoulder is more important than the farside one. Would be keen to have an expert or two comment on this too.
