Joao and the master of the Portuguese Guitar Custodio Castelo |
This week I am blogging from Portugal , where I have been prepping and shooting the new promo images and CD cover for Portugal’s own guitar genius Custodio Castelo , winner of the prestigious Amalia Rodrigues award for best Instrumentalist 2010. Here are some behind the scenes images so you get a better idea of whats to come . I set the call time for 5 am , the brief was to capture a mysterious feel and there is nothing more mysterious then winter streets at 5 am , I also wanted to capture the sunrise a couple of hours later .. more images and BTS video to follow shortly , you can also either follow my FB page and Custodio’s New Page for more images , they will be showcasing a new image every couple of days until the Launch of the album in March .
Shooting started at 5am in the Lisbon streets |
