More about Kadir G....
What do you love about your job?
I love researching techniques, and then trying them. I love researching equipment, and then creating the 'perfect' gear collection. I love looking through collected images and being impressed. I love the look on the clients face when they see your images and begin to grow in confidence. I love looking back at my images and seeing improvements. I love realising that i'm now creating the type of images that, as a kid, I used to use as desktop wallpapers.
What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?
I have done many portrait shoots, food shoots, event shoots and product shoots.
Shoots can be special when you can be yourself. During a shoot with West Ham United, as I photographed each player I asked them about a moment in their football career that was interesting/funny/embarrassing etc. A good ice breaker that then allowed us to relax and get the best photo possible.
Awards, honors, and recognitions received
My most noticeable moments were shooting for West Ham United, and an image of mine used for the cover of a Swiss (I think) magazine called Rckstr Mag.
A fun fact about this photographer
I can't remember the last day I went without music. It may have been over a decade ago. I use my portable waterproof speakers in my room and shower, and my in-ear noise cancelling earbuds whenever i'm on the move.
