Photographer Showcase – Dave Hill

by Bill Jones

Tweet

I’m a huge fan of Dave Hill and the “Dave Hill Look”. He creates such a great feel to his images. Some say its through HDR imaging, however according to Dave its not. He explains that he achieves his look through lighting first then Photoshop. I would agree with the lighting claim because of the fact that many people have tried to achieve his look solely through post production methods and some come close but they still don’t fully capture Dave’s style.

Its not just his amazing style that makes his work stand out but also his creative concepts and scenarios. One good example of this is his series titled Girl on an Adventure. Please take a look at the samples below to see what I mean and remember to visit his site at davehillphoto.com

What’s your opinion of Dave Hill’s work?

  I like most the “Girl on Adventure” series :) (though, not so much the underwater one)

  However, great photos! I like the style, the way he modified them.

  Very cool style.. It would be cool to see a behind the scenes article or video on the process, what gear ect ect.. Being self taught I’m always intrigued how the pro’s were able to get “that look”. (that’s one of the reasons I like this site, lot of good info for us amuteurs)
  Great article/showcase!

  I have been a fan of Dave Hill for a long time. His images are captivating on so many levels. On first glance the story of the image comes to life and then you take in the composition, incredible lighting and that no detail was to small to be ignored.

  Beautiful and really esthetic, visually between painting and photography.

  Dave Hill is fantastic. I wish he would share some of his techniques :P But I guess then everyone would be using his style. I have seen people try and mimic what he does but they don’t come anywhere close. Lots of post production that is for sure!
