About This Headshot Session
Anthony Gladman is a writer, specialised in drinks.
When we were planning his session, he told me: “I love flavour above all. I want to get people confident tasting and talking about the flavours in their drinks. I want people to enjoy drinking better, not more. I love opening the world of drinks up to people because a drink always tastes a bit better if you know a little bit more about it.” His passion and knowledge about drinks really comes through, and I wanted to bring that into his headshots.
He’s creative and fun, so we decided to look out for some quirky backdrops that would reflect these sides of his personality.
My goal was for the photos to give the impression that Anthony is highly skilled and dependable, and that his writing is engaging and fun.
I really enjoyed our session earlier today (cold wind aside). These photos are great, you’ve really managed to get a nice sense of warmth and connection – plus a dash of kapow.”
