πΈ NEWS!!!
Originally, Iβd decided the final round of the British Supermoto Championship at Cadwell Park was a no go. Too far, too expensive, and the media application process looked more complicated than applying to become Prime Minister!
But with a massive thank you to David Dearden and his assistance and patience, Iβve finally secured my media pass! π
What does it take to photograph a motorcycle race these days? Apparently:
πΈ Four forms of proof of previous work (despite Cadwell Park/MSV already using my images to advertise the event! π€·ββοΈ)
π A covering letter
π‘οΈ Proof of insurance
πͺͺ Copies of photographic ID
π° A letter from the publisher
βοΈ A letter from the editorβ¦ despite not working for a publication!
I'm surprised they didn't ask for a blood sample, my firstborn child and a signed letter from the late Queen. Although, getting Her Majesty out of the ground to sign it might have delayed things slightly. ππ
A massive thank you to David for helping get everything sorted that was needed
π SO, ABOUT RIDER PHOTOS.....
I'll be at Cadwell, but the restrictions on photographers mean I won't be able to shoot my usual style of images. Those low-down apex shots, close to the action angles and signature trackside shots simply won't be possible in the same way.
And I'm not going to charge riders my usual prices when I can't deliver the style of images you would normally expect from me.
CADWELL WILL BE DONATION-BASED!
Want photos? Drop me a message and I'll get your name on the list.
I'll capture what I can, and you can donate whatever you feel the photos are worth. No set price, no pressure. I'll still do my best to bring you some cracking shots within the restrictions.
I cant cover every round of the Season and not do the Final Round can I! Cadwell Park, here we come
