Alamy live news photography - chasing 2 winter storms with James Jagger Photography.

Alamy Live News photography requires James to be ever-ready, in the moment and able to role at a moment’s notice. Such was the case recently when Storm Bert and Storm Conall rolled in…

Chasing storms - Alamy Live News Photography style!

Chasing storms is always good fun. Also, from an Alamy Live News photography work point of view James knows these weather phenomena always generate media interest. As such it’s always worth getting a wriggle on to nail some shots.

Storm Bert was the first which saw James down on the coast and training his lens at ferocious waves whilst the dawn was breaking. Second was Storm Conall  which hit the UK and caused all sorts of travel chaos. Staying closer to home James managed to bag some shots showing the issues drivers were facing.

Alamy Live News photography media sales.

If you follow James’ updates, or know him personally, you’ll be aware of why the chap gets out and about with his camera. When not working with brides and grooms on wedding shoots, or clicking at sports meets and events James is a roving photojournalist.

The idea is to capture all the action, the photographic results of which are then uploaded to the Alamy Live News website. Journalists looking for illustrative imagery for their news articles can then trawl through the Alamy Live News library and find what they need. James’ photojournalism work is often used in the national press and media outlets. Such was the case with these last two winter storms.

Complementary photography skills.

Everything James does photography-wise is complementary. The skills James has from years as an Alamy Live News photography bod transfer directly across to situations like wedding photography. Having a photographer’s eye means Mr J always nails the shot(s). Able to anticipate, and sense when something’s about to happen it’s what makes him the skilled professional photographer he is - whatever subject matter James is shooting.

Why not give James a shout about how he can work with you on your photography project here.
