Just been asked to do one of these things… so thought I’d share!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Q. What do you do for a living?<\/strong><\/p>\n I help add personality to businesses by replacing tired, generic “stock library images” with stunning photos<\/a> of their people, place, products, suppliers… to make their website tell their story.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Q. What makes you good at it?<\/strong><\/p>\n Infectious enthusiasm, lighting mastery, fun approach and my right eye…. it sees the photos for me<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Q. If you could start over what would you be doing?<\/strong><\/p>\n I did start over and I’m doing what I want to do right now \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Q. What are the best and\/or worst pieces of advice you’ve had?<\/strong><\/p>\n Worse – you have to shoot weddings to make a living as a photographer…<\/p>\n Best – “you can do it” – maybe not in those exact words, but occaionally people say something as simple as that and it gives you that boost.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Q. What can your organisation do that your competitors can not?<\/strong><\/p>\n Create an environment to get the best out of people and create warm, engaging images which people love – all “on location” to minimise disruption to a business. My goal that people who hate being photographed enjoy the experience, and most do!<\/p>\n Also have possibly the widest portfolio of any photographer in Yorks, covering everything from supercars to curries!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Q. What are your top business\/work priorities for 2014<\/strong><\/p>\n Each week, to help 2-4 SME’s transform their marketing images from “generic stock” to “personalised stock” – putting Yorkshire people at the heart<\/a> of Yorkshire businesses.<\/p>\n I’ll leave that one \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Q. Tell us something about you that most people don’t know…<\/strong><\/p>\n I love making dams on streams….<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Q. How do you relax?<\/strong><\/p>\n Usually go out taking photos with friends – dales, coast.. that kind of thing. So, yes, I take photos for living and for fun…<\/p>\n Celebrity Juice… the stuff Mr Lemon gets away with is amazing, but it’s Holly and Fearne’s faces when he says it that I love!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Q. What’s your favourite quote?<\/strong><\/p>\n “Only fools are satisfied” – from Vienna, a song by Billy Joel<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n
