The Brenizer Method: How to Shoot Stunning Panoramic Portrait Photos

Everything you wanted to know.

You’ve probably heard of the Brenizer Method a lot in the past few months. And in truth, it’s a super fun method that can give you results you couldn’t have made otherwise. At least, you could’ve have done these without a medium format camera, large format camera, or wider super-fast aperture lens. In this post, we’re going to dive into posts we’ve done on the Brenizer Method over our years of…

What are you working on? I am interested in what makes organisms different from non-living systems, and how we can understand the peculiar structure and form of living beings. It is not the what organisms are made of that makes them different. It is how these materials are organized by processes that constantly convert them in complex and intertwined ways to keep the organism active and alive.

Have you always wanted to be a scientist? Not quite. I am the first scientist in my family. My interest in science awoke during my high school years. Thus: early on, but not always!

Why did you choose science/your discipline? I chose to study biology because I could not really decide which branch of science interested me most. The biology curriculum included some chemistry, physics, and geology as well, so I went for that.

What is science for you? Science consists of a collection of rigorous methods, agreed upon by scientists, to study reality. It involves a critical selection process by which ideas that do not match reality are amended or (ultimately) discarded.

What drives/motivates you? I want to understand! Especially my particular place in the universe. I would like to be a natural philosopher like they existed before we fragmented our research communities and ourselves into narrow intellectual habitats.

How do you balance life and science? I try, but fail more often than I succeed. On the one hand, science is more of a lifestyle than a job. On the other hand, there are many, many things that are important to me, which lie outside the scope of science. It's difficult to combine all of them. But it's necessary.

What is most important for you in life? To live my own philosophy. Only that way lays happiness and fullfilment.

What was your most important shaping experience/biggest achievement? My most important shaping experience and my biggest achievement is that I have followed my own path in life and scientific career.

Why science is fun? The thrill of the unknown. But also spending so much time with excellent intelligent and idealistic human beings that are as far removed from the population average as you can possibly get.

Any advice for future students? Think long and hard about what you want to do in life. Choosing an alternative career is not defeat or failure, but often a path to new adventures and increased happiness. If you are one of those determined to stay in academia, no matter what: the longer you survive and stick around, the higher your chance of success! Or as Lemmy from Motörhead put it:  "We're still here because we should have died a long time ago but we didn't." Be like Lemmy. Live long and prosper!

My kind of hero //

The photo I have taken is of my partner's family dog. She is a harlequin great dane, and was born just before, and raised throughout the covid19 pandemic. She is one of the many million pets acquired during lockdown by brits according to the BBC, so in other words she is a lockdown puppy! She is also a guard dog and assistance dog.

The image was taken in broad daylight on a smartphone, using the brenizer method to better enhance the subject. My interpretation of the brief ‘my kind of hero’ was a depiction of the unlikely, non commercial hero. I feel she is exactly that! Often we hear of dogs helping the blind, but very few know of assistance dogs - who help alleviate symptoms of various physical and mental health conditions, many of which are invisible to the eye such as epilepsy, PTSD or autism. Many studies have proven the positive effects dogs have on an owners wellbeing and even physical health, from lowering blood pressure to progressive cognitive function, these are all heightened in  the support assistance dogs provide, some of which are even trained to turn on lights and wake owners up! In this photo Harlie is staring deeply to the front in a posed position that shows off her stature, she is often caught staring - as a guard dog it is in her breed's nature to always be alert and aware of her surroundings. The unexpected - at first glance there is nothing unexpected of this photo, though if you look closely you can see her lead is wrapped around her paw and when she dropped down shortly after became entwined with it when running.

Jacqui, Research Group Leader

What are you working on? The skull is essential for human life but its development is poorly understood. Our goal is to understand how the skull grows during embryonic development. To do this we perform time lapse microscopy of bone cells in the developing mouse skull. By watching the cellular behaviours of these bone cells, we can understand the biological processes that drive skull growth in the embryo.

Have you always wanted to be a scientist? I have always wanted to be a scientist. When I was small, my mum gave me a book entitled “1000 Facts About Our World” and I was hooked. From then, I sought to understand how the world works.

Why did you choose science/your discipline? I chose to study developmental biology after I first saw an embryo developing under the microscope. I fell in love with how beautiful they are and became fascinated with how cells can organise themselves to shape a tissue.

What drives/motivates you? I am motivated by discovery; I want to see things in the world that no one else has ever seen.

How do you balance life and science? Balancing life and science is difficult at every level in research and I can’t pretend to be good at it. I try to be strict about time for friends and family.

Why science is fun? Science is fun for me because I get to use my imagination constantly; developing testable predictions from data is a very creative process.

Any advice for future students? My advice to future students is that they should talk to as many people as possible about their work. This is the best way to improve one’s thinking and build collaborations that lead to new discovery.

Tricia + Peter | New York City Engagement Photographer

I had the best opportunity by joining Tricia and Peter in New York City last week for their engagement in the big apple!  They are getting married next August in Vail.  They live in Manhattan and wanted to capture this exciting time in their lives.  Imagine my excitement when they welcomed the idea of flying me out to the city to capture their adventure?!

We navigated Central Park and the lovely Gapstow and Bow Bridges and all the enchanted woods feel of the park.  We skipped along through town via the subway and stopped throughout the day for snacks like hot dogs and gelato!  They are foodies like me so you can imagine we got along just fine.  It was fun getting to see the city through their eyes and to be introduced to their favorite stomping grounds.  One of my favorite moments was capturing the rush of the subway while Peter snuck a kiss.  It was the perfect situation to try a GIF animation, what do you think?!  I also found inspiration from a NYC photographer, Ryan Brenizer who pioneered a shooting technique that gives incredible depth of field.  It was fun getting to play with the Brenizer Method in Ryan’s own backyard!

Tricia and Peter treated me dinner and drinks and really made me feel like family in the beautifully chaotic city of Manhattan.  I spent a few extra days for myself to explore Brookly, Harlem and the Bronx.  This was my third time in the city and each time I discover a totally new burrow.  Thanks Tricia and Peter for continuing to fuel my passion to explore.  Can’t wait to party on top of Vail Mountain next Summer!  And thank you to Taylor at The Simply Elegant Group for connecting me with these sweethearts! – Ryan

Hot dogs and subways are the perfect characters for a NYC engagement!
