Great Portrait Photography by Joel Grimes

January 21, 2009

Portrait photography of people is a true art, because you get the essence of someone, in a certain moment. It´s like photography manages to capture a person's soul. To do that, you gotta be good and Joel Grimes really knows how to do that.

Joel Grimes is an American photographer who delivers us these great pieces of work. He has, also, a great post-work manipulating these pictures beautifully. For more of his work, visit his Flickr photostream or his website at http://www.joelgrimes.com/. Also we'd like to thank you Tyrone Michael for sending us the suggestion for this article

A combination of Dave Hill and Dragan-style!

But anyway, nice PP! :)

I don't like the HDR effect, but I do like the images.

Linus Conaboy01/21/2009

Oooh damn :D awesome!

Timothy01/21/2009

Awesome texture. And I like the grungy feel to them all. Very gritty & in your face.

Anonymous01/21/2009

for me some of them are overshooped, but nice pics

K3v01/21/2009

I like the dramatic feel, defenitly reminds me of Dave Hill!

vi5ionary01/22/2009

Technically fine images, and very well lit, but as the style is so similar to Dave Hill, I don't think they're too original.

This is jaw dropping photography. Great compositions and awesome angles.

abduzeedo = hdraddicts

tct01/22/2009

mmm......not really keen on these. Seem a bit OTT in the effects department as if to over compensate for an 'ordinary photo'.

Thanks for the post anyway.

Rishi Luchun01/22/2009

I think these are great, well taken photos

Anonymous01/23/2009

Awesum photography.....the pictures really bring out the essence of the persons personality....

Great photography
I was trying with different effect to make such photos, but it's really difficult

Thx
