'Before The Shutter' with Harley Bainbridge Photography

It's been a while! June was a busy one for me so had to take a break for a bit. As I was doing my monitor calibration last week I thought it would make an interesting video/podcast talking about how and why cameras and screens translate colours and why we need to make corrections. I'm no expert but know enough to get by so I'm hoping this is useful for those who are stating out and wondering why their images don't look accurate or correct when displayed on different screens and printers. Here's some links to the reference material I use, the equipment I use and where to get them. https://petapixel.com/2013/03/23/exploring-the-world-of-color-theory-with-a-3d-modeling-program/ [https://petapixel.com/2013/03/23/exploring-the-world-of-color-theory-with-a-3d-modeling-program/] https://calibrite.com/product/colorchecker-classic/ [https://calibrite.com/product/colorchecker-classic/] https://spyderx.datacolor.com/shop-products/image-capturing/ [https://spyderx.datacolor.com/shop-products/image-capturing/] https://colorconfidence.com/products/calibrite-colorchecker-display [https://colorconfidence.com/products/calibrite-colorchecker-display] https://www.xrite.com/categories/formulation-and-quality-assurance-software/i1profiler [https://www.xrite.com/categories/formulation-and-quality-assurance-software/i1profiler] https://www.viewsonic.com/uk/products/lcd/VP2785-4K [https://www.viewsonic.com/uk/products/lcd/VP2785-4K] Next one will be back to normal and talking about more art theory and practice, once I've had chance to do some proper research. Thanks again to everyone who's been listening and getting in contact, blows my mind everything that people decide to listen to my ramblings.

Hi everyone! Thank you once again for the amazing engagement and support you've been offering, we're still a small group but I'm so appreciative to everyone who has watched and subscribed to my channel. This week I'm talking about the story of Migrant Mother and how it was manipulated in order to provide a story which the editor and creator felt was more engaging. You could call it 'Fake News', but was this a purposeful change or a mere mixup of details by the photographer? And in the case of Migrant Mother, did the ends justify the means when it meant that the New Deal institutes of the Resettlement Administration and the Last Farm Securities Administration received more funding and support from Congress and the public? Dorothea Lange made a universally acclaimed and iconic image which has remained one of the most influential and recognisable documentary photographs of the 20th century and together we will look at the context surrounding its creation and the Florence Owens Thompsons reaction to it, as well as the reaction from her family.

After a few weeks of burying myself in work and research I’ve finally got round to making a new video & Podcast! This week we will be talking about improving your art and photography by investing in reading instead of equipment. These are some of my favourite books and make a great set of introductions to deeper reading and delving into more specific topics over time. Consider it essential reading for upcoming video topics, hopefully helping you develop as much as they helped me :) Overall the focus of these works are to help us understand how photography developed, the changes in usage and movements and the practitioners who drove forward the progression of photography as an art medium. There’s so much insight knowledge here about the intent and execution of works as well as how those intentions tied back to their placement in cultural and time.  Here are some links to the books discussed in this video, they are not affiliated so make sure to shop around. Many can be found for less that £10 including shipping when looking at eBay and other used book stores or charity shops.

Hi Everyone! Thank you for all the recent support on my photography videos and podcast! In this video I'm taking a look at the myth that Victorians were always miserable. Typically we see lots of portrait photographs with the subject looking very wooden and stoic, so I thought I'd share how the use of posing supports, the limited technological ability of cameras, and the conventions of portraiture dictated how the photographs looked.

In this episode I'm taking a look at the 2006 portrait of Steve Jobs that has become one of the most iconic photographs of the last 20 years. We'll be discussing why it works so well, what we can understand from what we see and a little about why we shouldn't just copy what Albert Watson did when making this superb photograph.
