Don't Look Down!

Old school photographers risk factor

It was pure chance that when visiting a couples home in Hampshire I notices a great photo of a construction worker on a high crane jib, without the now customary safety harness, hi vis jacket and hard hat.

This was the first time I met Graeme and his wife Marion and as I looked at the photo, I casually said the photographer behind the camera clearly had no fear of heights. Graeme swiftly replied, no I didn’t and so commenced a conversation about his days as a press photographer. 

Graeme kindly gave me some background to how he approached taking the photograph in this short video blog.

He was a treasure of fascinating stories including a Mia Farrow incident in Wokingham Berkshire and the fact he was the first to have a photograph on the front page of The Times – I can see another short video blog on the horizon!

For the purpose of web site use, we find the most popular request is for the clean look of the white background with the staff member looking relaxed. We normally shoot at the clients premises bringing along all of our lighting gear / white background etc., which means work productivity can be maintained because staff haven't got to take time out to travel to a studio. We usually work to 30 minutes per team member and that usually gives the subject person enough time to relax and look their best.
