welcome
may
We have another interesting,
essential and feature-packed
issue this month, with a range
of articles, including how to
create and shoot a narrative in
your wedding assignments
from pro Stewart Randall. Matt Henry talks
about always getting - and keeping - your
hard-earned cash. We have double styling in
the form of a fashion shoot and some
retouching inspiration from Katie Nattrass.
Three pros give us an insight into their lives
and work, and the increasingly popular Kevin
Mullins shares more of his business and
creative ideas as well.
Simon Bruty, who flies the UK flag as a
staffer for Sports Illustrated magazine, talks
to us about shooting sports, US style.
Cool Britannia continues with a visit to GF
Smith, and Tim Flach tells us who inspires
him in our Heroes feature. Fancy the new
Nikon D4? Check out what I have to say about
it on page 95 onwards.
However, the jewel in the crown is the
results section for our PPOTY 2011 awards.
We have the winners and runners-up from this
year’s competition - a beautiful and inspiring
collection of work from around the globe. A
huge congratulations to all of the winners.
Enjoy May’s issue.
