Karen Strunks Professional Birmingham-based Freelance Photographer

Hello Digital 2009

Yesterday’s photo assignment at Hello Digital for Aquila TV was a slighty different to other assignments I have done in that the photos were uploaded ‘live’ during the event. This meant that there was no time for editing, cropping or colour correction. Throughout the day I took batches of photographs which were then uploaded onto flickr to provide a live photostream.

It was a very busy and well attended event, and there were so many things to photograph! The result was that 102 photos were uploaded to the photostream. Here are a few of my favourites from the day…..

A twitter message from Hello Digital flash up on one of the big screens,  ”Don’t be alarmed @strunksphoto is a very friendly photographer”

Alex Hughes is a freelance cartoonist and illustrator. I’d secretly always wanted Alex to draw me, but I had never liked say anything, but luckily Alex asked if he could, so of course I said yes!

The likeness is remarkable! Erm….Thanks Alex (I love it really)

 
Tonight will see me heading over to the Town Hall in Birmingham for the Style Awards. I’ll be covering the celebs on the red carpet for Rewired PR and then attending the award ceremony. It’s going to be a very stylish and glamorous night, and as a photographer you have to be ready for every occasion, so I’ve made sure I have all the appropriate kit in my bag
