Rochelle Humes nearly there but not really???


 

It's all in the eyes as they say and this one certainly knows it? Another Female Celebrity photo FAIL! This is not a photographer error or camera playing up it's more a celebrity not playing ball.

Rochelle Humes at the time this was taken was part of the Girl Group The Saturdays. They were visiting BBC Radio 1 in Central London promoting their latest single/album or doing something in the live department. One of those or all 3. Can't rememeber.

Did manage to get shots of Franke Sandford now Bridge, Una Healy and something vaguely of Mollie King but this one was proving  a bit elusive. Remember it being packed wresting not just with other paps but screaming fans and autograph hunters as well.

This photo of Rochelle.... what can I say .... she is there, she is in focus so no dreaded back focusing, it's technically sharp as hell and beautifully exposed, lovely wall as a backdrop, lovely outfit  BUT a bit too side on and the dreaded "eyes down" is a sure way to kill a shot stone dead. I think I was trying to get something out of her she is listening to what I'm saying and smiling  but it's still  the almighty  playing hard to get "eyes down". The smile makes it even worse?

Help yourself to this photo, if there is something AI out there that can turn her round by 45 degrees and open her eyes to get this photo to work then give it a try. For me it's a distant memory of photographic failure. Looking at my main website at Frank John you would think I have these female stars eating out of the palm of my hand on a daily basis BUT  sadly it is not always the case on more than a few occasions. You can't win them all as they say!

Apparently another  new blog  over at the main website last two posts focused  on 
Beautiful Female Celebritoes
first two being Charli XCC and Tulisa. May be worth a look?

Anna Wintour Out of Focus at London Fashion Week 2014. London Celebrity Photographer Behind the Scenes

INTRODUCTION: Anna Wintour at LFW Monday 15 Sept 2014 according to the EXIF. Another Behind the Scenes look at the world of being a Celebrity Photographer in London. It's not all Rainbows and Unicorns? There is a saying in photographic circles which I keep repeating and that is "Always show your best work". I agree, BUT I'm at the other end of the spectrum. Yes show your best work on your portfolio site (mine is frankjohn.com ) for sure, but show your mess ups somewhere else. I think that is very important! That's how you learn, by learning from your mistakes. It takes many bad pictures to arrive at a good one.......even the Masters are subject to this same photographic law of numbers. WHAT? So what have we here?  This is another "Houston We Have a PROBLEM" photo this time involving Anna Wintour at LFW (London Fashion Week). Yes another extremely annoying photo destined for the Recycle Bin. No Range Rovers in the way as with the previous post featuring K...

Sarah Harding Paparazzi Photo Shoot Archive Raw Video

  A Behind the scenes video of Sarah Harding arriving at BBC Radio 1 in Central London on 8 September 2014. A Paparazzi Photo Shoot Video RAW and unedited probably 360p quality under my former website FameFad. Unfortunately Sarah is no longer with us as of Sept 2021 BBC headline .......so this is a video tribute to Sarah Harding. R.I.P Further Details: A video shot by myself whilst in the middle of a crowd of Paparazzi. About 10 or 15 if I remember correctly? Can't remember if I was just filming or whether the video (a bridge camera) was bolted onto the camera rig and taking photos at the same time.. If it was, the shots are somewhere buried on a hard drive, where is the question. If they are found then they will appear alongside this video. This video footage is a constant reminder that you are taking photos or filming real people here and they are subjected to the same natural laws and highs and lows of life as everybody else. This video shoot is just a typi...

Khloe Kardashian outside the Langham Hotel BUT Houston "We have a Problem?"

A behind the photo/lens behind the scenes look at Khloe Kardashian straight over from LA arriving at The Langham Hotel in Central London. Archive Photo buried on a hard drive taken 14 Nov 2013.  A sort of hotel surveillance session from some insider info that I became increasingly involved with in the mid to later years of being a Celebrity Photographer.. Remember it being pretty cold. She's looking good, nice smile, wearing aviator shades...not a problem, hair looks great, she's looking in our direction and posing up which helps.....interesting scene with some hotel concierge adding a bit of a story and context to the photo BUT we have some problems here? 1. The vehicle she turned up in (huge Range Rover not the Sport variety) is in the way. Normally the driver drops the person off and drives off but the driver is just staying put and stopping us getting any full length shots for some reason. I think there was about a dozen of us behind some barriers they put up...a sort of ph...
