One area of business that has been significantly affected by the coronavirus pandemic is photography. Due to security measures, it is currently not possible for customers to visit photo studios. But the British photographer Tim Dunk came up with an innovative way to solve this unpleasant situation - he decided to take his portraits remotely using the FaceTime application.

Before the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, Tim Dunk mainly made a living as a wedding photographer, so the ban on mass events and the associated postponement of weddings really put a significant strain on his budget. Of course, FaceTime photos can never compare to pictures taken with a classic SLR camera. Especially the latest iPhones are equipped with really capable cameras, and when we realize what magic they can do with them, the idea of such a way of taking photos does not sound completely meaningless. In addition, as a professional photographer, Tim Dunk knows how to deal with light and other parameters that are necessary for a perfect photo. He can remotely help his clients find the most suitable place for a photo shoot in their home, navigates them to the ideal position in the best possible lighting and gives them other necessary instructions to make the pictures really successful.
