This is commonly known as the "Dave Hill" look.

Creating That Dave Hill Look | DIYPhotography.net

Combine those post-process techniques with solid studio lighting, and you've got it.

Have a look as his stuff here:

Sorry I can't offer any additional advice on how to get that look but all I can say is WoW. His work is outstanding.

It's 3 lights, 2 bare and one key light. honestly not that hard.

His lighting for most of them is the same. 2 stripbanks (or bare strobes) on each side, a little behind the subject and a main large softbox in front. However, his choice of lighting for his subjects is wildly inappropriate. The hardness of the side light isn't suited to the models.

Sorry Friends I have no idea I am also here for the soultion of my problem. I've heard some people make a great living selling photos online. I'm interested in turning my hobby into a part-time job. Does anyone know of good resource to find what type of photos are in demand?

Photography markets are local, not global for the most part (unless you shoot stock) There are literally thousands of websites that will give you advice, ranging from insightful and accurate to terrible and unrealistic. Read from the "Earning with photography" secton of these forums, it's a good place to start.

You should know, that almost everyone that buys a DSLR thinks they'll make it as a professional at some point, but it takes business savvy, marketing, customer service and people skills in addition to taking excellent photos in order to succeed.

Hi,

I agree with you. A question though, you mentioned shooting stock...i've heard about this but i have never really put interest in it until now, can you direct me to the right place to learn stock?

All you need to know about stock photography is that the market is now over saturated and the agencies are paying less than the cost of production. They have trillions of images in stock and it will take a good bit of time for those images to become dated and of no use to them before the pricing comes back if it ever does.

There are a couple of really good threads on the subject in the earning with photography sub-forum.
