Welcome to our YouTube channel!
Greg Gorman has been working as a portrait photographer for over 40 years. His work has been seen everywhere from Hollywood posters to the cover of magazines. Now Greg shares his passion for portrait photography and how the careful controlling of light is key to his success.
Greg, with the help of Lee from our academy team, recreates one of his famous David Bowie shots using only a constant light source provided by the brilliant Rotolight system.

I always thought that was a tear on Bowies face to signify a past event rather than the present. How the simple becomes the extraordinary...

If you can do a 5 day with Greg, it’s worth it- he’s a great teacher.

You could have replicated the Arri Daylight HMI with strobe back then when you used it and have shot at higher shutter speeds!

I would of had David Bowie holding the guitar more naturally. His left hand on the fret board as he played it right handed. The guitar is strung right handed. Gibson SG.
