Damien Lovegrove

Damien learned his trade as a cameraman and lighting director during
14 years at the BBC, working on programmes such as the Clothes Show, Top of the Pops and Casualty. Days off from filming were often spent taking photographs for a variety of top name clients including Peugeot, Motorola, and Adidas.

"Photography fascinates me" declares Damien. "Creating instant pictures using a technically intricate process is electrifying, and if done well the pictures can have great value too. Making pictures is something I've enjoyed throughout my life, and if I could paint quickly I'd probably be doing that instead. Much of my photography is inspired by a burning enthusiasm within me" explains Damien. Picking up a camera gives me such a rush that I'm instantly driven to create pictures.

Damien has managed to equip himself with a thorough foundation in the technology of photography and combined that with a true understanding of light courtesy of the BBC. These are the skills he passes on to other photographers through his seminars, workshops and DVDs.

The SWPP 2008 Convention was an outstanding success,
we have 242 days to get ready for the 2009 convention - which starts on January 14, 2009
