Hi all

A friend of mine is looking for a photographer to do a portfolio for her daughter. I know there are heaps of great photographers out there who take fab bike piccies. Can anyone recommend someone?

Cheers
Leanne

Hi there, my friend Sharlene is into that game, she has a website www.focalpointphotos.co.nz and is well affordable. Tell her Rhys told you about Focal Point Photos and she may even do you a deal...

I would take note that taking great bike pics in no way means they take great girl pictures though ... seen some great bikes and great people done by the same person.

I can vouch for the quality of this guy's work.

Too true - I started life as a newspaper photographer then got into motorsport and was really good at it. Can do the odd wedding too, but to take good portraits, etc you need studio lighting and good gear. You also have to understand how lighting works - I can take some good people photos but it's certainly not what I do best.
