Photograph taken with Lumix G1 in my conservatory using natural light and artboard background
What was your inspiration?
I design and make bears, so am always looking to capture their personality in the photos.
What are you most proud of?
I don't think he looks posed, but reasonably natural.
What advice would you give someone starting this project?
I have a set of studio lights and a light box, but prefer natural light. The lighting seems to be the most important thing, so wait for a bright day...if you can.
