Wanting To Tag Along: Documentary Photographer


Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

My name's Tom McDonald and I'm a keen photographer living in Armidale NSW. I'm also a keen bowhunter.

Anyway, I'm keen on doing a project focusing on pig hunting in Australia, particularly in the New England region.

I'm wondering if there's any body out there (preferably someone with lots of experience) who I can tag along with a few times so I can get started and get some interesting photographs :)

I'm looking at the New England region at this stage, but if there's really no interest I'm happy to travel. I have my R licence if that helps but I wouldn't need it in a SF if I'm not hunting.

Cheers,

Tom.

P.S this is not spam or a scam :)

G'day Tom, maybe if you chucked up some of your bow hunting pictures or something might help get the trust of a few people on here. Most hunters are very wary of anything like what you are proposing.

Funny, just read someone else was asking a similar thing on the forum a while back.

Basically, what I'm after is not to widely publicise the pics, I don't work as a photographer, I do it as a personal form of expression. I'm just interested in life and activities that aren't really mainstream.

As I've also said, I'm a keen hunter myself.

Anyone who I tag along with will get prints (if the pics are good enough :| ) and of course credit where credit is due. I want to eventually get a book happening, not to promote hunting as such, but to portray a way of life that isn't usually observed by your average joe.

Cheers,

Tom.
