new anthony saluto fine art photography gallery now open, mclean county and bloomington normal never looked so good



Anthony Saluto Photography opened a new gallery across from the coffee hound, downtown Bloomington IL. 412 n main street, directly next door to reality bites.


The space was irresistible for this project, I couldn't’t turn it down. There are so many new ways to present fine art photography today. With my vast archive of the local area, I am looking forward to blowing up some prints in many types of papers, canvases, finishes, and so on. I really don’t see any end to the possibilities with digital photography today.

I will be offering, limited edition prints in the larger sizes, limited to 10, 50, 150, and many open editions.

Fine art note cards, will have signed original prints. Suitable for framing, sending, or collecting. They will be offered in a wider variety than I have ever done before. They will be available in sets as well as individually. The current retail is $3.75 each.

commercial usage of the images are available as well.

miami beach fashion show


shot under the fashion big top in south beach
literally on the sand few things are more exciting
than a professional fashion show

exteriors

interiors



the right interior is always one of my favorite assignments, many can require days of lighting
and working the shots, this one was done in less than an hour. more often than not great existing
lighting is incorporated into the photo capturing the perfect image.

my children's story book look portrait

sepia and color





timeless and treasured
set discontinued
1995

what you're looking at is a studio shot, precious moments become precious memories, i have 5 lights on this set against a custom meadows hand painted back drop, a flash unit mounted on the camera lens pops in front of a white partial filter creating the cloud feel.

swim fashion / portfolios







you cant lose when you look this good
it's every where, swim suits, a big part of travel, fashion, portfolio, stock, editorial, sports magazines, you will be well served to include swim suits in your photo shoots. i especially like doing coastal area swim wear shoots. this photo is from 1994 i shot it in la , it was made into a poster. designers for your line , models for your portfolio, publishers for your features, give me a call
cell 309 824 9176

4 grand a day is easy, contact me to work on your portfolio

do your portfolio and head for miami & go see 40 modeling agencies in south beach, get your feed back, grab a pesky waitress job, rent the apartment before your return trip to get your car full of stuff.

$ 4,000 for a days work. book a portfolio job with me and i will work with you on an all in one day or several days ongoing to edit down to the best choices for your book. i'm in central il now, with a great studio, have a condo in palm beach and favor miami beyond description. work in chicago and south florida a lot. give my cell a call 309 824 9176

and smile with your eyes, stock photography, amy rocks, what is stock


stock photography is just that. bill gates is corbis.com, getty images is, yes, the grandson of the oil tycoon. among hundreds of others who broker images to publishers, ad agencies, designers, and businesses and organizations of all kinds from the new york times to your local bank brochure. stored in digital files searchable by many key word descriptions, from brain surgery to kid on a trike and every theme in between
e mail me images if you would like to be included in my model files for stock photo shoots, beauty sells, character sells, uniqueness, photo buyer needs are endless, fashions change, hair, eye wear, cars, desk top computers, are all dated, and millions of images are kept for the communications industry to tap into on an as needed basis, at usually a new york minute pace. most models from kids to seniors
do stock work on a tfp or trade for prints basis. many sit in files for years and never get used, others may be on your next cell phone package. nobody really knows. its usually good for both the model and photographer. stock prices to photo buyers have changed drastically since the internet has made searching and delivery so fast,
time is money and prices are cheaper than ever. as a model its great to get practice
or a breakthrough image for your portfolio. i hear all the time we need health care and seniors images from stock houses. whole crews have taken shoots at schools to build education images. everything is done with a signed model release. drop me a few jpgs at gosaluto@bellsouth.net

i want that girl, i told the server i knew at club 110, amy was a great model to work stock ad shots with


i shoot many formats of film, reading light on women or buildings for 35 years, i have here a beautiful bank of north light windows, and 35mm pro canon, at 8 frames a second not much will get by, i love a natural light, and have worked it often, my 4000 square foot loft studio has 35 wrap around windows, north, east, south, and west
with two and a half luxury baths which serve as make up and changing accommodations.

beautiful women make beautiful pictures. lori with shades has been on many of my business cards an old friend i'm glad i encouraged her to move to fl.


often a great image is a moment which i capture, a benefit of a professional shoot,
it seems if 36 images are created or 3600 images are created, a few are always going to pop off the light box. if there is a problem with digital, that would be it, often
a photographer will see his lcd screen and think hes got it. when in fact the mystery of not always knowing what you have on film is exactly what keeps you working a shoot. a lot of film and lab costs will be saved, a lot of unworked images will go by the way side and never be captured. for sure many more will be made by knowing angles and lighting are working faster. i like 3 hour shoot sessions when working, and shoot hundreds of images from set to set and change to change. fashion,
beauty, portfolio, head shots, i love them all, call or write, 309 824 8176 , gosaluto@bellsouth.net

ceo bap development , i photographed willy in coconut grove bay view office atop his bear head rug

ceo telefonica usa, i photographed at a secret location in front of a server traffic control room screen, unmarked warehouse in miami, fl usa

images on the cutting edge
i love the image for two reasons, its not a double exposure, and it has no computer manipulation. how did i do it, look for that in my forthcoming book, or better yet

ceo's start selling in the boardromm

international developers take stake in ocean view.



first miami ceo assignment
north light is hard to beat
north light is hard to beat, i packed heavy for this boardroom location shoot. once on location in the board room with more lighting gear than i knew there would be time for, i'm drawn to the bank of north windows and with an eye for a perfect diffusion of overcast conditions the light was sweeping in better than any possible lighting modification setup. with a reflector to bounce back some of this quality light, the best light source of them all, almost always would be my first choice, especially under any time constraints which ceo's tend to have. its crucial not use direct sun so weighing the conditions of light direction and diffusion creates beautiful images every time. a roll of provia through my hasselblad, and another through my canon, and in 30-40 minutes its a wrap. this was my first assignment for an art director and it led to 30 more assignments, all over miami

condo king jorge perez just landed on forbes 400 list and hes taking calls in the middle of my photo shoot, imagine that. no problem.
