Jacob Kowalski / portrait
Portrait of author Jacob Kowalski.
Photographed on location in one of the bedrooms of an old German castle or Schloss. I had been in the room on a previous occasion and had noticed the daylight streaming through the window. However when it came to the shoot the sun was in a different position so I used flash to replicate the atmosphere. I was aiming at something akin to the classical tradition after Vermeer

Amazing old Dutch masters’ light in this picture! Jacob looks like half/half Stephen King/Jonathan Franzen. And I mean that as a compliment.
Lovely lighting on this one Marty – very natural. Did you get one of Jacob bare feet too?
