Iain Glen Portrait Sitting, Rory Lewis Photographer 2014
Iain Glen is a Scottish film, television, and stage actor best known for his roles in the Resident Evil films and for portraying Ser Jorah Mormont in Game of Thrones.
Iain accepted my invitation to sit for a portrait a few weeks ago. The session took place at the London studio. Iain arrived on his Cycle, biking being Iain’s favourite pass time. After a chat about his recent projects, I explained the style of images I wanted to achieve. “I like to learn about each person I photograph, so I do my homework, this helps to start a conversation and put the sitter at ease.“
Iain admired my recent Portrait Sitting with Sir Patrick Stewart and wanted his images to be lit in the same style. After setting up my equipment, we went to work, creating striking series of portraits, Iain took over posing without direction towards the end of the session, and we managed to capture a selection of spontaneous images which really stand out.
