Above is an image of Singer/Songwriter Matthew Castle,.
We had a shoot recently to create some images for him to use for general PR use and maybe an CD cover.
Our first location was a wooded area where we utilised a dead tree (see blogpost below), later we went to an old abandoned house that had shuttering up at the windows which made a nice background.
The colour version of this has a lot of impact as Matthews blue jean jacket contrasts with the cream walls and wood of the building, although I really like the black and white version shown here.
As for lighting, there was harsh sunlight coming from the right so I lit Matthew from the front left with one flash, very simple, but very effective.
The square format of the image is ideal for a CD cover as I have left some space for text at the top left, as you can see in the mocked up version below.....
