Hello from photographer

Post by cobbphoto »

Hi Everyone,

Just wanted to say hello.

I'm in the creative world, with a few awards here and there. I have started photographing re-enactment for the past year now. The more I'm doing it the more interested I'm becoming. Spent a lot of time with Panzer Lehr UK, great bunch.
I'm mainly shooting portraits at present, maybe not every re-enactors cup of tea, but been doing action too.
Sort of thinking of a book and magazine photo essay as an end product.

A few sample pics attached.

Became interested in this initially as my father deals in military bikes & jeeps mainly and attends War and Peace.

Hope to see you on the circuit this year and take your pic. No I don't charge, have to mention this as I had that quetion a 100 times at Military Odyssey,

Cheers

Russell

So many guiys on the circuit doing excellent stuff, so just trying to take a different angle. The photos are mostly lit,
For those interested, check out these original 1942 WW2 photos, ok American but interesting:

All the usual tarts on there :lol:
Nice images. Seems this genre is becoming popular as is the strobist stuff.

Will probably see you around - Keep up the good work

Strobist?( the American term) Yep its popular, some like it, some not. These are with a Leica M, natural light-
Yep it seems a small world out there, more with the usual suspects indeed :-)

Yes hope to see you around
