Week 18
May 12, 2009
So having emailed various other photographers asking for work I have had a reply.
Stephen Gill one of my favourite photographers has emailed me back asking for help on a project. This is a great opportunity and one I welcome with open arms, this will start on the 18th May and will consist of me helping out in his studio and putting together 125 small books. This is a fantastic opportunity, it will help me understand the way a true professional in the field of photography works and will be priceless information to me and help me. Stephen has been extremely professional and succesful and will be a great photographer to work with for the week and as a bonus he has said he will pay for my services.
The portfolio is done and ready to hand in, I have printed the images at a photographic lab called palm based in Birmingham, I am extreemly happy with these and feel this was the best for me If I am to go to any future employers. I feel a hard copy with prints is better for me as images never look as good on a website and by either taking prints by hand or by post I can have complete control over how the image is seen as monitors all over the world vary so images may appear to dark or to light in some places.
