Salli Gainsford

Phottix-Salli

as a mentor what are my strong points?

• As a specialist in soft lighting, I harness beauty of large modifiers to craft stunning portraits that capture the essence of every subject. Whether it’s newborns, families, beloved pets, or unique character portraits.

• With over three decades of experience, I have honed and refined a unique style in post-production that consistently meets the high expectations of my discerning clientele. My commitment to excellence ensures that each project is approached with a meticulous eye for detail, resulting in exceptional final products that truly resonate.

• My artistic approach is ideal for mentees who are excited to learn how to style their own shoots and stand out in a crowded market. Whether your focus is on maternity photography, fantasy concepts, or timeless family portraits, I can guide you to think creatively and explore new ideas. Together, we will uncover fresh perspectives that will enhance your work and distinguish you from others.

• While I am well recognized for my fine art photography, it's important to highlight that I am also a versatile photographer with a diverse skill set across various photography styles. Expertise extends beyond just art; I possess a keen eye for identifying what can turn a great idea into a successful business.  This combination allows me to offer a well-rounded perspective that can elevate your photography.
