Hello Matias, I work in a combination of the two. I approach them differently as well, especially regarding if I am shooting with back & white film, color negative film, and color positive film (slide film). With Digital photography, I tend to use the Expose To The Right method of exposure and pull the exposure back in post production. For portraiture, I use my trusty light meter to achieve the right exposure. I think portraiture is fantastic, especially when the photographer connects with the subject, then the magic of portraiture can be electric. The influences that come to mind for me are people like Sue Bryce, Gregory Heisler, Yousef Karsh, Annie Leibovitz, Edward Weston, and my mentor, Christopher Grey. I will have to look into the portraitists that have caught influence you. The Landscape and Still Life photographers that stand out to me are people like Ansel Adams, Clyde Butcher, Edward Weston, Willem Verbeek. Matias, at this point, you're correct about my studio needs. I had a 2,170 sq. ft. studio and was able to do a lot in that space. I really didn't like having to chase down photographers to share the studio with. Fortunately, I am not in need of a studio at this point in time, and if I need one, I can always rent space for the time I need it and bring my own equipment. I am currently working on putting together a darkroom in the basement of where I live currently.
