Every photo I capture is one frame from a much bigger story.
The art of photography is writing a story through the frames you capture, my process is simple but has to be well executed.
I genuinely face this is in two ways, what you capture and how you capture it.
What you capture, simple, frame the event, its location, who’s involved and the tiny details that tell the story. For example, wide shots of the landscape, the details here of the dj decks that set the tone. When you see coverage of an event you should feel like you were there.
How you capture it, use perspective, my favourite shot from the strong backyard ultra was the shot of leading the pack down the straight in front of burton constable hall. The scale of his body to the hall shows the magnificence of the venue. Use technique to level up the visuals, not every shot has to be blurry in the back and sharp on the subject, events like this are very kinetic, slow the shutter show the energy involved.
The last thing I always look for is moments, the tiny moments that show human interaction or emotion the ones that are often overlooked or missed. These are gold and bring back the memories, like the shot of the two ladies crossing the line on that lap after pushing for 6km embraced over the line before their rest, or the bloke brushing his hair and howling with his mate who’s recording him! This is the difference hiring a photographer makes.
If you have a story to tell, let’s tell it.
