PROFILE – RANKIN
As a photographer, Rankin stands on the top tier. One of the leading portrait photographers of our generation, Rankin has built a photographic empire, and his talent and his success are unquestioned. We get a very special insight into this brave and astute, creative entrepreneur.
HOW I GOT THAT SHOT
Each image in Nicky Hamilton’s personal project, The Lonely Man, is a three-month labour of love and patience. What first seems like an image in a quaint location is in fact a set built, dressed, and styled by Hamilton himself. We take a look into just what went in to crafting this amazing series.
STUDIO MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE
Running a photography business with Excel spreadsheet is not always efficient; frequently it’s complicated and confusing. Studio management software provides photographers with business tools and services to manage their clients and operational workflow. But with so many choices, which one is best for your business? Discover time and sanity-savings solutions to supercharge your business, and streamline your workflow.
COMPETITION SECRETS
Every year, Capture magazine sets out to discover the industry’s best new talent via the Australasia’sTop Emerging Photographers competition. Judged by some of the best photographers from around the world, across 10 categories, how can you improve your chances of taking out the top honours? We spoke with three past judges who shared their greatest insights.
LIGHT THE WAY
Using artificial lighting can be both a daunting and expensive prospect for newer photographers. With a myriad
of lighting options on the market and a spectrum of price ranges, it’s easy to get confused with all the options out there. Sam Edmonds spoke with photographic masters about their approach to lighting, and how to make it amazing on a budget.
THE ART OF STORYTELLING
Anyone can take pictures, and most consider themselves photographers, but just how do you become an amazing storyteller? Regardless of genre, stories are inherent in photos. But with billions of images flooding our world, most photos are reduced to eye-candy with no real substance to them. So what makes a photographer a storyteller?
