The excellent quality of the photos speak to Daniel's talent as an artist and his ability put people at ease. I was impressed with Daniel's ability to work with darker skin. He understood how to light darker skin to get the best effect. I'm not naturally inclined to getting photos of myself, but Daniel's approach took the uneasiness away and made it fun. I recommend reading the blog Daniel sends out prior to the session. There's lots of good tips to prepare for the session. Daniel's tips helped me manage anxiety and helped the session go smoother. Bring a variety of outfits. It's not always obvious what will work well. Daniel was able to provide a special pass so parking was free, and I didn't have to worry about topping the meter or racing the parking inspector. There was ample parking close to his studio. I was concerned about parking in Chippendale. Parking anxiety should be a recognised condition in Sydney.
