More about Scott R....
What do you love about your job?
I love the unknown. Not knowing sometimes what or where my next job could take me or who I would meet. My days are so different, they are never the same and things can change in an instant. From day to day and even hour to hour, I may not know what I will be doing next. I have really loved all the new people I have met over my years in the business. Each and every one has their own story and then it is up to me to interpret that information and then portray it in my own unique way. It's the ability to be able to instil onto others my own thoughts and ideas of a particular person, scene or an event. It may not be seen as right to some, but it's my interpretation.
What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?
I have captured world events, international sports, news, portraits, pets, commercial & food photography to name but a few. I love being able to be artistic in my work and be able to present a persons personality in wrapped up in either a single image or a few images, all telling a story. My studio work, be it still life, products or portraits also allows me to be creative, using lighting to alter a scene or person's overall emotions. Making 'something from nothing' in many cases is what I love to create as an artist. Bringing scenes to life in a creative way which create an emotion in a viewer of those images.
Awards, honors, and recognitions received
I have quite a few. From many 'best news & sports' photo awards, 'health & wellbeing awards' to my highest award of World Rural Press photo of the year in 2018. That's my only international claim to fame !!
A fun fact about this photographer
