Not so fun fact: Among many other art subjects, I studied photography for 5 years in high school and college and haven't really done anything useful with it since, despite having a collection of SLR cameras and DSLR. I really would like to use them more so we'll see how this year goes and whether I can brush up on my editing skills again too!
Now, I don't do enough photographer appreciation posts but, as another group of humans that are important to keeping this site running, along with the rest of us, I really should!
Today I want to show some appreciation for every single photographer and aspiring tog here, staff and non-staff.
One non-staff tog I'd like to mention in particular is someone I've worked with a few times now and think should be a few steps closer to becoming staff already, is @niallpatterson!
Niall is an all round good guy and such a pleasure to work with. He is professional, listens to your ideas and offers advice when feeling down too. He has become a good friend of mine over the past year or two and I'm really glad our paths crossed amd strengthened through SG!
Niall's work is great too, we have submitted a couple of sets for SG and he has 30 sets in member review right now, plus 1 set of the day! I love so many of them and think there should be many more sets of the day for sure!
Happy little accidents is the most recent set we shot and an amazing 2888 humans have shown love for it, it has over 800 comments too! I would still absolutely love to go pink with that set, I'm not sure what the process is once a certain amount of time has passed and if other sets are on the way, but I know not to give up hope and keep pushing for mission3k, that's for sure! I know we'll have more sets for you in future and I'll keep sharing Niall's work on here and across social media, I just really want his sets noticed (not just mine!)
Please have a look at Niall's sets that are currently in MR, (Click here) and give him a follow to see if he's coming to a city near you this year. He has even more really cool sets coming out shortly following the UK and Amsterdam shootfests in 2019 and will be headed to the Australia shootfest in a few days... I for one am so excited to see everything from his travels!
Anyway, @niallpatterson FOR STAFF!!!
