Default Professional photographer for Croft - Help!

Do we have any Professional photographers on here or any recommendations that would like to cover the Croft trackday weekend on the 28th and 29th June?

The guy who covered it last year, Peter Crouch, cannot make it this year as he’s doing a football match..

What about Jon who covered Bedford and does the other Fast Ford stuff. He is Buckinghamshire based though and it maybe too far.

I would love to help out. Been taking photos at croft for a couple of years now - http://petrolhead.fotopic.net/

BUT

You need to be careful as Croft is very strickt about who they let on Trackside (Assuming thats what you require). The person would have to be invited by the Organisers and also have Public Liability Insurance which I don't

Saying that, its not the end of the world if you can't get trackside as you still get some great photos. All mine have been taken spectator side of the fence

If you need further info or want to contact me, PM me

Couple of examples:









PS I could also maybe pursuade someone else who is highly regarded to come and help out (Geoff Hubbert)

Think Bec's dad lives too far away Cressy, shame really


Dingo's gonna have a look over the suggestions - he asked me to post on his behalf as he had no net access where he was this morning

Cheers guys

A mate of mine is rather handy with a Camera, he has all the gear and could get some amazing shots of the stands with his 60ft tripod

I'm sure Chip will agree with me









Heres a pic taken using the telescopic mount:



Let me know if you want me to have a word, I think he joined upto here once so I can get him to drop whoever a PM if you want

Yeah, he'd probably do the photos for free if he got to feed his car some cossies on track in exchange

Linsay, give Nick or Dave a bell at the office, they will be able to point you in the direction of the guys they use for the mag. They are all really good.

Hope this helps.

Well the offer is there. There would be no charge just cost for photos which would be not much as I would send origionals for those wanting them so they can get it printed
