2011 MacBook Air. 3 beeps of doom and a matrix display. Doesn’t look positive. All key combos deployed with one resulting in enough time to deactivate Fotostation to preserve the license. That’s a win. Oversized doorstop from here on in 😬

Lots of sense written here. ‘Objective curation without prejudice’. If your work isn’t creatively aligned or of the standard required/expected of the outlet then you are not going to be considered. It’s not personal. And maybe some years later, the stars will align. I can attest to this.
Such a great story for our #telegraphmag cover feature today on the lost tapes from Bowie’s Young Americans album recording sessions. A must read piece by Richard Grant with photographs by Michael Barker. On the @telegraphnews.bsky.social website and app now.

As I have done the past few years, the stats are in: stripping out regular pages shot by the same photographer week in/week out, across all shoots the male/female split was 57%-43%. For covers it was 60/40 in favour of men Disappointing as we achieved parity last year Onwards and upwards for 2025
Well said.
As I am want to say, a portrait is a highly constructed image. Staged, managed and bossed (diplomatically of course) in order to get what the photographer aims to achieve (or fulfil a brief). Street and documentary portraits are a whole different deal.
Know your genre and apply accordingly…
I often see photographer websites with a ‘portrait’ section full of documentary/reportage style images. That’s an instant fail in my book.
No pressure then!
