The Way We Work - Care

Last months theme for the portraits for my ongoing photography project with Viva Brighton magazine, The Way We Work was ‘care’ so we thought we’d photograph care workers.

So we headed down to the wonderful Martlets Hospice in Brighton & Hove, Sussex to photograph some of the amazing people who work there.

This morning I received this lovely email passed onto me by the magazine:

”I just wanted to pass on a huge thank you to you and Adam for the incredible ‘Way We Work’ Martlets feature in this month’s Viva Brighton – so many people have mentioned it to me and noticed it.  All the people in the magazine have asked for extra copies for family and friends (considering they all ‘hate having their photograph taken’ I think that shows Adam’s wonderful talent that everyone is pleased!)  We’re also delighted to be in such a wonderful edition – it was quite hard to get any work done when it arrived...

I hope you are all well, best wishes and many, many thanks again.”

It’s always nice getting feedback, but from people who literally change peoples live, it means a lot.

The first five years.....

I don’t really do photography projects…..however I seem to have accidentally been shooting one for five years now.

Once a month, every month for the last five years (that’s 60 shoots), i’ve been photographing Brighton people (326 in total) in various professions / hobbies / businesses for the wonderful Viva Brighton Magazine with the help of the amazing Rebecca Cunningham and Kelly Mechen.

Although it's not quite an A to Z of professions, we’ve shot everything from Adventures to Window cleaners including Butchers, Bakers and Cocktail Makers.

When I started the first The Way We Work shoot in November of 2014 I didn’t think we’d be still shooting five years later, but to be honest, i’m more than happy to continue this project indefinitely as it’s such fun, incredibly interesting and is literally a documentary of The Way We Work.

Like I said, I don’t really do photography projects, but when I do they seem to be big.

The Way We Work - Scientists

As part of my ongoing project to capture The Way We Work for Viva Brighton Magazine, I got to shoot a load of portraits of scientists at Susssex University in their labs.

They were a really interesting bunch of people and I seem to remember having some good discussions with them. 

The Way We Work - Architects Portraits

As part of my ongoing project to capture The Way We Work for Viva Brighton magazine, I got to photograph a load of Architect's portraits the other month. 

I love how they are all wearing similar tones and colours. Maybe it's an Architect's thing.

The Way We Work - Brighton Home Brewers portraits

The Way We Work - Brighton Home Brewers portraits

I had a great day last month shooting my regular project, The Way We Work for Viva Brighton magazine. 

I got to meet and take the portrait of five of Brighton & Hove's home brewers. I even got to take some of their delicious beers home with me.
