  3. Sports Photography Philosophy Podcast No.31 on Dortmund v Munich

    01/25/2019

    Sports Photography Philosophy Podcast No.31 on Dortmund v Munich

    Todays show is one my late but great boss who we lost in 2018, the legend Steve Rose use to call Meat and Potato’s. This is as close to regular shooting job a sports photographer like me has, a football slash soccer league match though this one is a little more special, so maybe we can add some gravy to this one hey Steve, as it’s a Bundesliga or German Football league game between the two giants in Germany, Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich. Its in the shorter show so more suited for you millennials out there who have no patience. I kid of course. I am recording this intro from small city outside of called Arequipa in their Air Force base in Peru where I will be covering the Dakar Rally for the next weeks, as I have shot a week already, so sorry for the sound quality on this and the outro. I will record some bits from here so will be doing my second podcast on this event, my favourite yet hardest assignment I have covered. Back to this show, I speak about the fans, working conditions at this ground I have experienced in the past, various other live assignments shooting for Getty from other photographers on the day and a not too happy co-worker who is usually such a happy chap but today, not so much.

    Andrew D. Bernstein on Sports Photography Philosophy Podcast #30

    Todays fantastic guest is Andrew Bernstein, who not only is one of the longest serving NBA photographers, not only is he the Director of Photography for Staples Center, home to the LA Lakers, LA Clippers, LA Kings and hosted every top musician you could name, not only is he recent Hall of Fame inductee, not only he is only the second photographer to ever be recognized with the prestigious Curt Gowdy Media Award he is the LA Lakers team photographer and has worked closely with players from Magic Johnson to LeBron James.

As you will hear in the next 90 minutes, Andrew is a vastly experienced photographer who has captured many of the highs and lows of one of the greatest players of all time but this interview is not about Kobe, though he of course get a mention. We go back in time too where it all started from shooting landscapes with his father, to shadowing Sports Illustrated photographers, being a 4th assistant in a Lakers Photo shoot in the early 80s, setting up strobes or flashes in the roof of the stadiums to shoot live action basketball, training and leaving a legacy of other team photographers around the NBA, about representing your clients every time you pick up a camera and working with MIT to develop remote camera firing technology and yes, I call a basketball game a match sometimes so apologies for the wrong terminology.

  5. Commonwealth Games Gold Coast 2018

    11/01/2018

    Commonwealth Games Gold Coast 2018

    Sports Photography Philosophy Podcast No. 29. Today’s show is a special one for me. This was my first experience in Australia as a photographer for Getty Images. I spent 3 weeks working The Commonwealth Games held in the glorious Australian state of Queensland for Gold Coast 2018. For those not familiar with this event, it’s a multi-sport event in the similar vein as the Summer Olympics except the only countries that can compete are members states of the British Commonwealth. In the next hour, you will hear a pre-event photographers brief prior to the weightlifting, working with Clive Rose and new Nikon ambassador, Quinn Rooney in an outdoor pool bathed in Queensland sunshine, transmitting to editors in the media centre, shooting beach volleyball, badminton, gymnastic, track cycling, hockey and table tennis to name a few. I will also run through the positives and negatives of shooting a new sport each day and of course it wouldn’t be me if I didn’t get distracted and go on the occasional rant. Just a note, I mention the Winter Olympics podcast a few times in this show which I am still working on. Seems I recorded a lot more unintelligible crap than normal so its taking a bit longer to edit than planned but, without further ado, I hope you enjoy the, Sports Photography Philosophy Podcast!
