One of the benefits of our profession is that we very often get to see places and meet people we would never otherwise meet. Sometimes this is getting to meet and chat to celebrities and other famous and interesting people and at other times, it's being granted access to facilities usually off limits to the general public.
The commission we had on the 10th August 2010 falls largely into the latter category.
We were commissioned by Sodick, the manufacturers of some highly specialised engineering equipment, to photograph their installation at Boxall and Edmiston, a firm in Shrewsbury in Shropshire. Even more interesting, this firm craft (I cannot say 'manufacture') the most exquisite shotguns. They are quite simply, works of art.
Here are just a couple of photos from the assignment
