David Petranker
Sydney, Australia
2 November 1973

I have been taking photos from the age of 16 when I was using a Asahi Pentax ME taking photos for the school paper.

Equipment 5D Mark II
70 – 200mm
16 – 35mm
100 – 300mm

I specialise in Noir style portraits, Outdoor modelling shoots, both male and female.

Normal flat rate is $100 for a two our shoot in Sydney, this does not include set up time and light testing, you will receive a disk with your images on it approximatley 200 images unwatermarked the only restriction on the images if they are used the photographer (me) has to be billed.

I believe in preparation with my shoots as well, if a shoot in a particular location is going to take longer than 30 minutes then i have not done my job properly, this does depend on whether i am shooting more than one style of shoot at that particular location.

I love catching moments in peoples life, you will never know what that moment was you will only have an insight.

95% of my shots are edited in lightroom 2.4 using contrast and tone techniques basically straight from the camera, the other 5% I use CS3, you will know the shots that I modify.

Favourite camera sayings

- A great photo will speak through silence
- Camera a mirror with memory
