PRODUCTION STILLS
Stills are an often overlooked but contracted component of a commission, vital for publicising the programme. Having an assigned photographer ensures full coverage of all aspects of your film or expedition, as well as providing a narrative continuity through the images. As an experienced, widely published and award winning documentary photographer, I work fast, recognise great light, and know how to deliver stills that tell a story for books, social media, web and publicity.
Publicity for your film needs thought and planning in advance, in order to get the best pictures. As a stills photographer I think about the overall story you are telling, from portraits to wildlife to landscapes. This means you have a coordinated, complete picture covering all aspects of the project that you need to promote the film, delivered in one file already curated.
I provide packages tailored to your needs and worked out in advance, so that you are compliant with the commissioner’s specifications.
