String Quartet Portraits in Buckingham

I was contacted by Jame Masters from Echo Studios saying he had a String Quartet recording at his studios this morning. I was not sure what to expect, I had questions like their age, skill, sex. Part of me was hoping it would be Escala, but I was pleasantly surprised to find a more mature musicians. I took photos of them playing but I wanted to use my Flash umbrella to get some strong black and white shots. Using one of the studio’s sound dampening boards as a background I set my Nikon D3 to absorb only the strongest highlights. This gives me a strong contrasting image. Once in Adobe Lightroom I could dampen the blacks and push up the whites resulting the this composition.

Hi Terry
Hope you are well. Just wondered if I could look at the other photos that you took in the studio. They look really good.
Best wishes
Shelley
