WORCESTER BID
Uniquely Yours
Once in a while, a photography commission comes along that’s a little bit different from what I usually do and quite an exciting prospect!
I was commissioned by design group, Modus Creative, on behalf of Worcester BID, to produce photographs for a 216 page coffee table book, highlighting 151 independent businesses within the BID (Business improvement District) area.
The book would be called ‘Uniquely Yours’, a high quality, lifestyle, coffee-table book, designed to promote Worcester as a unique place to shop, eat, play and live.
I made 27 visits to Worcester over a five month period, photographing food, interiors, portraits of shop owners and local business men and women, and drank some of the best coffee I have ever tasted, at the many superb coffee shops in Worcester.
The final photograph was for the front cover, and it was decided that we would use the very old and picturesque Friar Street. I stood on top of a very high and shaky ladder for over an hour, waiting for the perfect moment when people were in just the right position.
