International Stock and Commercial Photographer, in the Byron Bay, Lismore, Kingscliff and Ballina Areas
Just thought I’d drop in a quick note about the Australian Institute of Professional Photography (AIPP). The AIPP was established in 1963 with the twin objectives of:
As the AIPP says “nearly 50 years after our inception, using an AIPP accredited photographer is still the best assurance you can get that your chosen photographer is a professional, skilled in the art of photography.
If you want to be sure you are using an AIPP accredited professional photographer…..look for the logo!”
Another string to my bow as a professional photographer is the commercial photography that I do.
One of the jobs I do regularly as a commercial photographer is photographing trucks. Being a professional truck photographer presents it’s own special set of challenges and rewards. Depending on the client, I can sometimes have the relaxed pleasure of doing a location shoot with a truck that can be moved at will, however, almost all the time I cannot take a truck out of service for a photoshoot. When I can’t take the truck out of service I normally know which trucks are my targets, I have a series of locations in mind and I have access to their GPS tracking system.
Then it’s a matter of logistics and luck to get the right truck in the right place at the right time with the right weather and lighting. It can take me hours (or occasionally days) to travel to a location, set up and wait. I often then have mere fractions of seconds to photograph the truck as it passes by at 100kmh. It has to be done right first time. There are no do overs. Perfect for a wedding photographer like me as I am used to high pressure photographer with no second chances.
And sometimes I make things easier for myself like the shot below that I took for Mills Transport. In this case I was able to work quite slowly. I’d seen the speed bump and new he would have to slow right down to cross it. Perfect and relaxed. I probably had a whole 10 seconds to get the shot.
And I get to do cool stuff. Occasionally I get to go for a drive in the trucks and when you see me next, ask about the time I stopped morning peak hour traffic in the middle of Sydney.
Did you know I can also shoot products? A potential client just asked me to show them some of my small product commercial photography work isolated on a white background. If you need a product photographed give me a call. I put together a quick gallery of previous images to show them here.
