Documentary

This category includes photo shoots where I mostly take photographs using ambient, available light – sometimes with the assistance of an on-camera flash. I often get sent on these assignments on my own, occasionally I’ll be accompanied by a journalist. I love these jobs because they remind me of the days I did my internship at The Pretoria News. Many times I’m required to go to places that I wouldn’t normally have known about and I get to meet diverse people and hear their stories. I also enjoy the challenge of having to get publishable photos in sometimes less photogenic environments and to work with camera shy people.

This is only a very few of a large number of documentary style shoots that I have done since 2002.
