Poultry photographer needed

[Geckodan]

Hi Guys, I am looking for some contacts for a studio type poultry photographer to supply some photos for a book I am writing. I have some excellent shots from Rupert Stephenson from the UK (example below) but I need some additional shots of all poultry breeds. I am ideally looking for show type images, depicting above average quality birds in ideal stance so that the book displays all breeds in a consistent manner. If anyone can help or can recommend a photographer, I would be extremely grateful. All images are fully acknowledged. This is the style of image I am chasing. The books covers all poultry breeds.
Cheers
Danny Brown

I think this is a very nice idea and would be great for all chicken enthusiast every where. The credit to the photographer is wonderful. However setting this up in a consistent studio style might be hard. I have a studio but getting show quality might be hard. Will look forward to hearing more on this thread from an enthusiast and a photographer sides.

HI Danny,

I'm a photographer in Los Angeles, not sure where you are. I would love to have the opportunity to work on this shoot. I am an experienced photographer whom loves chickens. I raised a coop of 9 on my own as a child and they hold a dear place to my heart. I also have the patience needed to shoot such a mobile animal and can do an awesome lighting set up.

My main photography business is Fashion, but I can use the same wonderful lighting and clarity as I do with people and use it in photography.

My fashion website is : www.kimgrisco.com

I can make those chickens even look amazing, or match what the photographer in the UK was doing for you.

There's two photographers that I love their work also and can match what they are doing as well. It's Catherine Ledner ( book called Animal House)
Sharon Montrose www.sharonmontrose.com

Hi Danny,

I would love the opportunity to photograph some amazing chickens. I am a very experienced photographer her in Los Angeles, not sure where you are based out of.

I had a coop of 9 chickens a child and have loved chickens ever since and would love the opportunity to photograph them. I shoot mainly fashion but I have experience shooting Birds of Prey for my uncles business, so I have the patience needed in photographing animals and birds.

My lighting is impeccable and beautiful. I can match what your friend was doing in the UK which I think is lovely, or I can light it even more beautifully and make everything very consistant, so side by side you can see the exact differences in every breed. I have a website that is my name kim grisco dot com.

Also I love the photography work of Catherine Ledner and Sharon Montrose and their animal photography as well.

I know the picture below is pretty shi shi and over the top, I wouldn't be putting jewelry on the chickens...lol.


Thanks,

Kim

Hi Kim, Thanks for the offer but we are a little geographically disadvantaged as I am in Australia.
