NEWSLETTER - May 2009



Our Find a Photographer section, with more than 800 photographer's portfolios now on display, is helping picture buyers find some great photographers for local commissions worldwide. These have varied from the construction of new stadiums in South Africa for the 2010 World Cup and aerial ship photography in Sri Lanka for a shipping firm to a fashion shoot in Dubai and the WOMAD music festival in Spain. If you need a photographer for a shoot, why not save money, and help the planet at the same time, by finding someone local!
