Why me

Prepared,
fast, useful

Most of what I am hired for happens once. A launch, a birthday, a band's only reveal night. Nobody is going to run it again because the photographer missed it, so the real work happens before the day: reading the schedule, learning who matters, knowing where to stand before the moment arrives.

I have worked rooms where a hundred people are on a timetable I am not allowed to disturb, and rooms where the whole brief was to make one person feel like themselves. Both come down to the same thing.

Know the plan, stay out of the way, come back with what was needed.The whole method
Book it

Tell me the date

The date, the room, and what the pictures are for. That is enough to get a real answer, and it comes back within 24 hours.
