For those that want a challenge I can promise that working live is one of the most scary things (certainly the most difficult and potentially the most rewarding however) . Its very hard to keep ones artistic integrity with taking photos at corporate events. I never wanted to be the sort of photographer that was there to weddings, parties, 21st’s etc, but I thoroughly enjoyed my work with the guys at the exclusive Zing Wine Bar last night, and may even consider some corporate work in the future. Particualry if its as high end as this!
It was requested that I came down and did their photography work (the aforementioned Scary Corporate Gig). I agreed, but when you are working for someone else and they hope to use your work, it is not the same as setting up artistic photo shoots with scouting and recon involved. You turn up shoot the shots and hope that lighting and everything else was correct for you. My advice is very simple, and that is do what you think is best. Stop thinking as Yoda would say erm do or do not there is no try… (Has the lack of sleep really made me quote yoda?…..nevermind)
I was lucky enough to get some top notch shots, and as well as that have a fantastic crowd about, who were so chuffed to be seeing the legendary DJ Nicky Holloway (Old Kent Road famous, and Master mixer himself, Ibiza king etc ) I must admit part of the thrill for me was having the chance to see one of this DJ’s rare sets. Top notch.
So a couple of shots here for you, but remember that the majority are with the boys at Zing and if you are ever in the UK feel free to visit them…Love and Peace Newman
