Nicholas Creevy – Photographer Interview

In this week’s photographer interview we’re featuring UK photographer Nicholas Creevy . How did you first get into photography? I first brought my first DSLR around 4-5 years back while I was learning graphic design at college. The main reason for my purchase was to take some stock photos to use in my graphic design work and by fluke I captured a split second image of a relative of mine, a few people said I had a skill for taking general portraits. Even tho I knew this was a fluke I decided to try my skills in the fashion industry so I signed up to a modelling website (ModelMayhem) and set up my first photo shoot with a model, it just went all from there! What do you know now that you wish you knew when you started? I really wish I prepared for how competitive the fashion industry is back when I first started that I have come to know now, It is like a school playground where you have the cool kids at one end and the no-so-cool kids at the other end, Along with that one person in the middle! What type of camera do you use most? My first camera as a Canon EOS 400D (Xti), but I have since then upgraded to a Canon EOS 5D as I just love full frame! What is your favorite lens? I used to really love the 50mm prime lens , but now the 85mm just never comes off my camera! Could you share a favorite recent image and tell us a little of the back story behind it The story behind the image above is really the way my style is going, I took this while I was location scouting for a upcoming shoot I had planned at the time. So I would defiantly this is one of my favorite as this is reflecting me now! Do you have a tip for beginner to intermediate photographers that will help them improve their photography? Never stop experimenting, always try to push your boundaries every day.
