Natalie

It is not that often that I shoot someone I’ve never met before but that is what happened here with Natalie Chinnyah. She is a dancer and a friend of a friend who is a photographer who was working with her recently. I was at his house (by invitation) while he was shooting. I found [...]

Andrea Again

Bernie Greene — Tue, 01 Nov 2011 00:02:20 +0000

This is another composite image. Andrea was shot at my underground car park high tech studio in East Grinstead several months ago. The background image was shot about a week ago in London. I shot the London image as a background with the Andrea image or something similar in mind. This was practice for a [...]

What’s the Story?

Bernie Greene — Sat, 15 Oct 2011 04:14:33 +0000

Several months ago Dave Press and I met up for an ideas session on promo images. We had coffee and talked and I came up with an idea he wasn’t sure of at the time. Nevertheless I did shoot several images for this idea. When it came to processing I didn’t think I had all [...]

Camden Town Shoot

Bernie Greene — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 21:02:48 +0000

This image was made from an HDR made from a series of shots at the end of a session in Camden Town, London, yesterday. I was with a friend who wanted to learn more about HDR and I chose Camden market as a location to shoot because it is colourful in many different ways. But [...]

Portrait Photographer?

Bernie Greene — Wed, 12 Oct 2011 10:00:59 +0000

This is the famous leaning St Mary the Virgin Church in Little Wakering, Essex. You may think this not a suitable subject for a portrait photographer and you’d probably be right. But sometimes I like to do a personal project that is outside my usual field. Being temporarily in Southend-on-Sea I’m taking advantage of the [...]

The Once Grand Hotel

Bernie Greene — Mon, 26 Sep 2011 23:38:55 +0000

This is the once Grand Hotel in Leigh-on-Sea, Essex. I went there quite a bit in my youth. Bands played there and I might have even played there myself. Far off days. Today it is empty and available for rent and I believe it has been so for quite a while. I know it isn’t [...]

The Kursaal – Southend-on-Sea

Bernie Greene — Wed, 21 Sep 2011 19:07:01 +0000

Around 110 years ago The Kursaal was the only amusement park in the world. It used to occupy a site of many acres and was a place of mystery and wonder to me as a boy growing up in the area. Today it’s grand entrance hall is pretty much all that survives. But it still [...]

Which Witch?

Bernie Greene — Sat, 17 Sep 2011 14:47:26 +0000

This may not be the best example of standard portrait photography but then I’m not much of a standard portrait photographer. I find myself getting more and more involved in making images that are themselves made up of several other images. This is from 3 images made of Julie, who describes herself as a witch, [...]

Adrianne

This is Adrianne. She is very sweet and has tons of spirit.

Chris Carter

Bernie Greene — Tue, 30 Aug 2011 12:33:56 +0000

Chris is about to launch a website for his new book which is a detective story set in New York in the sixties. Chris is one of the most knowledgable people on the planet on the subject of The Velvet Underground and a fairly reliable source (Chris himself) told me the book has some aspects [...]
